The police have shut down two massage parlous – in Qormi and Luqa – after its owner was arrested and pleaded guilty to profiting off prostitution.

Aaron Caruana, a 31-year-old from Tarxien, was prosecuted today in front of magistrate Gabriella Vella following a police investigation into his massage parlours in Triq San Ġużepp, Qormi and Triq il-Ġdida, Luqa.

He pleaded guilty to charges of profiting off prostitution and allowing his properties to be used as brothels and will be sentenced on Monday.
