Police have arrested a woman after concerns were raised a massage parlour is being used as a brothel in Evesham.
A 51-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of control prostitution for financial gain under the Sexual Offences Act 2003.
DC Paul Luke of South Worcestershire Proactive CID said: “Yesterday we executed a warrant at a massage parlour in Evesham in response to concerns around sexual services being offered there.
“Evidence of such illegal behaviour was found at the premises, and a 51-year-old woman was arrested who is now helping police with enquiries.
“Premises such as this are often linked to modern day slavery and human trafficking so warrants show we will always act upon concerns around criminal exploitation.”
