NA police raid Asian spa. Asian Body Works, Route 1, North Attleboro, was raided by police July 22, 2011 NORTH ATTLEBORO - Police arrested two employees at a Route 1 massage parlor Thursday on prostitution-related charges after an undercover police officer posing as a customer allegedly was indecently touched after he was offered sexual contact for a fee.Detective Sgt. Christopher Ciccio said the two women were arrested at Asian Bodywork at 771 East Washington St., after police raided the establishment around 12:15 p.m.Arrested were Amy Wei, 53, and Jun Mei Li, 35, both of whom gave addresses in Flushing, N.Y., Ciccio said.They were charged with indecent assault and battery, offering sexual conduct for a fee and conspiracy, and were scheduled to be arraigned today in Attleboro District Court.After booking, Wei was ordered held at the police station on $10,000 cash bail. Li was ordered held on $5,000 cash bail.Both have criminal records for similar crimes in New York and are not United States citizens, Ciccio said.Wei is wanted by U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement, but Ciccio said he did not have the details.Ciccio said the raid was the result of a three-month investigation after police received anonymous tips and researched the business through the Internet and social networking sites.The undercover officer called Asian Body Works Wednesday and made an appointment for a massage before the raid."He went there for a massage, and he was the victim of an indecent assault and battery," Ciccio said. The detective sergeant said there was an agreement for a fee for the sexual contact, and that the women were the only employees at the establishment at the time.Ciccio said the investigation is still ongoing and more charges may be filed.Police will also be contacting town officials regarding whether the establishment was properly licensed.Several local police officers were involved in the investigation, as well as state police detectives assigned to the Bristol County District Attorney's Office, Ciccio said.There was no answer at the business Thursday night.The establishment offers "soothing and relaxing body works" to reduce stress and muscle pain, according to an Internet website.One website included reviews of the business in which one customer reported - using slang abbreviations - having sexual contact with an employee after a second visit.Another customer who had been there a "few times" suggested receiving sexual contact with an employee during a massage.The last arrest for prostitution in North Attleboro occurred during the late 1980s, when a woman was arrested at her home on Allen Avenue.
