Five men were arrested in Prince Albert recently after police launched a crackdown on the sex trade in the community.

Officers seized five vehicles while carrying out the sting.

The accused are due in court tomorrow.

Meantime, the police service says it has mailed so-called “Dear John” letters to seven other men whose vehicles were allegedly seen in areas of active prostitution within the city.

Eight female suspects were also arrested and will appear in court on Thursday to answer to charges of prostitution.
