A brothel operating illegally from a suburban Ballarat street has been given official orders to close its doors. One neighbour said the premises had been raided on September 22 with a number of unmarked police cars and a regular police car approaching and taking photographs. He said a locksmith had visited the venue on Friday, presumably to fix the locks following the raid. The man said neighbours were fed up with the scores of cars that would park around the block, waiting for calls to be told it was their turn to enter.
He expressed concern that although the premises had been declared a proscribed brothel, that the unwanted visits and activity would continue. Another neighbour said when the brothel first opened, it had its windows broken. Following that incident, she said owners puts screens over the windows for security. She said she had seen two older men and a younger man dropping girls off regularly at the premises. Skip to navigation Skip to content Skip to footer.
