National Police in Torremolinos are investigating an assault in a local brothel after a man, thought to be a regular at the establishment, threatened the women with a knife, robbed them and then tried to rape one of them.
The incident occurred last week, at dawn. The man, of North African origin, entered the establishment without arousing suspicion, suggesting that he was a regular client. He then threatened the prostitutes with a kitchen knife and demanded they hand over their money.
After robbing them, he then tried to rape one of the women but was unsuccessful in his endeavour and fled the scene.
