A Victorian brothel has been busted for operating illegally and breaching COVID-19 stage three restrictions.
Victoria Police Deputy Commissioner Shane Patton revealed the brothel in Geelong copped a hefty fine just short of $10,000 yesterday.
Deputy. Comm. Patton described the illicit act as "insane".
"We were called there to this brothel because that street was so busy at one stage it became a traffic jam," he said.
"That is absolutely insane. Our Sentinel patrols attended and initiated the owner of that business that was operating a fine – and the escort was also issued a fine."
The owners of the brothel claimed they were "unaware" of the restrictions.
"It is so reckless, it is just so ridiculous."
