[QUOTE=lcw16;10611695]I have heard about similar extortion case which was encountered by my friend's friend and his girlfriend (Not too sure if it is true and pls don't zap me for this. I am just sharing what I heard.) in Huihua Hotel of which 2 policeman went knocking on his hotel door, went through all the verification questions, and demanded for 4000RMB should the couple want to be left alone or otherwise, the police will bring them back to the police station for further questioning. Not wanting to create a issue out of this, 4000RMB was given.
I guess every foreign visitor (Hongkongers inclusive) that goes CP for recreational purposes wants as little trouble as possible. Most important thing to the visitors is enjoyment. The police and the 'police' knows about this and it gives them the opportunity to make some quick money out of this.
as far as i know , the china anti-prositution law is like this
both man and woman detained at police station
usually the fine is about 5000 rmb, offical receipt will be given with the police officer stamp and chop
the particulars of the man and woman will be taken down and recorded
in the event the fine is not paid or you are not able to pay
the law allows them to detain you in police custody for 5 to 15 days
not a conviction but a stain in your record
