The efforts by the Ashanti Regional Security Council to flush out prostitutes in Kumasi appears to be a wild goose chase, as practitioners including children, increases.
Despite being an illegal business, the practice is widespread in the Regional capital with little or no resistance at some joints in the full glare of the public.
Luv FM's visited one of the Garden City's biggest slums, Asafo BB, where prostitution and crime complement each other.
Last week, a tricycle rider died after he was allegedly thrown out a two-storey building by persons suspected to be commercial sex workers.
The man was wearing a condom when his body was found in the middle of the street and is alleged to have refused to pay the sex worker after patronising her service.
The sex worker and her friends came together to punish the customer leading to his death.
The incident which happened at Asafo Lorry Terminal in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region has left the residents in shock.
The Anidado Hotel and Restaurant where the incident happened has since been locked up after police picked up the suspects.
