It was discovered in February that young girls were being trafficked on Twitter and other social media platforms to provide services to customers in Saraburi and other provinces.
Police posing as clients offered to buy sexual services and managed to rescue three teenage girls, who were now under police protection.
Following the investigation, the three den mothers were arrested.
The three girls were allegedly lured into prostitution by the three suspects, who told them they would be selling goods online. One of the girls was the daughter of the den mother in Chiang Rai Province.
