GULFPORT, Miss. — A man has been charged in south Mississippi with harboring an illegal immigrant for the purpose of prostitution.

A criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court alleges that Moonseop Kim drove a woman to a hotel in Biloxi where she thought she was meeting a client for sex in September. But undercover officers had allegedly arranged for the meeting after calling a number on a sex advertisement on a website.

Kim was arrested at a nearby restaurant. The complaint says the investigation led to a house in Biloxi that appeared to be set up for harboring illegal immigrants for prostitution.

Court records did not list an attorney for Kim.

A phone number listed in court records was no longer working.
