KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The F.B.I. is searching for two people accused of human trafficking. The crimes allegedly took place inside massage parlors in the Kansas City, Missouri area.

Wei Li Pang and Shu Gang Li are Chinese nationals. They also go by Linda and James.

The F.B.I. says the couple "allegedly exploited undocumented women from China by forcing them to work in multiple massage parlors they owned". It began in 2006. The women were allegedly forced to perform sex acts.
