The judge denied them bail on grounds that they will not be safe in the community. Their case will be heard on May 10.
“It is our mandate as the court to protect the accused persons. Releasing them to a biased society cannot guarantee their safety, so prison is their safe place,’’ the judge ruled.
The prosecution team claims that the suspects are part of a network that is grooming young boys into acts of sodomy and recruiting male adults into gayism.
The prosecution further claims that the men were arrested while recording pornographic and sex videos 'which they usually share with other parties for money.'
The same court, on April 4, charged a senior teacher and her alleged lesbian partner with indecency and procuring gross indecency. They were remanded until April 20.
