A man whose brothel has been repeatedly investigated for trafficking Asian women was a Crown Casino high roller agent.

The Tope Street brothel, which remains popular with some of the Crown high-roller patrons according to sources with knowledge of its operations, was at the heart of a federal police operation between 2011 and 2015, code named Katrino, which targeted the trafficking of women from South and North Korea and China to Melbourne.

But numerous court files reveal how a criminal syndicate that was supplying women to Mr Pan’s brothel “enticed women to work in brothels in Australia” using dozens of mobile phones subscribed in false names.In late 2015, County Court Judge Gavan Meredith said this syndicate was involved in the “laundering of funds generated from the work of … women who were placed in a situation of potential vulnerability”.

Ms Kim also said that while she and others ran the daily operations of the brothel, they paid Mr Pan a “weekly cut on the basis of the number of units provided to clients by sex workers”. Court files reveal how the trafficking syndicate “expressed a direct interest in making sure the sex workers performed as many units as possible” at Pan’s brothel, and that “fines would sometimes be imposed if sex workers did not attend for work … or didn’t perform enough units”.
