A MOTHER has been arrested and charged with selling her 16-year-old twin daughters into prostitution.
The girls had initially been forced to have sex with members of a criminal. Then they were made to work in brothels in Gerona, Madrid and later on the Axarquia. They were allegedly subjected to numerous attacks by their ’owners.’
Now 12 people, including the mother, have been charged by a Malaga Court for the prostitution of the twins in Nerja and Velez-Malaga brothels.
The suspects were remanded in custody and are awaiting trial.
Six of those held are Spaniards, five Romanians and one Brazilian. The mother sold her daughters in Romania to a prostitution network for money, police believe.
Arrests were made following the girls’ mother moving to Torrox to run a prostitution ring.
