A human trafficking gang has been busted and they will now face charges of trafficking and sexually exploiting hundreds of women across London.
The husband and wife team, Sebastian Zimoch, of 48 years old, and Anna Zimoch, from 46, along with Gregaor Borowka, from 44, Michael Lozinski, from 52, and Rafal Lacki, from 41, were charged in Isleworth Crown Court with conspiracy to organize or facilitating human trafficking and controlling lucrative prostitution between January 1, 2017 and February 9 of last year.
Lozinski was sentenced for a second charge of controlling prostitution for profit between January 1, 2017 and February 9 of last year, in connection with a massage parlor business called Massage Bunnies.
The gang of smugglers was run by Sebastian Zimoch, and his wife, who ran it during a period when he was away. The husband started the business, known as Golden Kiss, in 2015.
The court heard that the gang ran at least five brothels, with locations in Acton, Ealing, Paddington, White City and Dudden Hill.
The brothels in Paddington and Dudden Hill were run directly by the Zimochs, while Lozinski ran White City.
According to one investigation, while the girls were in the brothels, “they had no choice about what they wanted to do.” The other places were run by all three at different times.
