I'm sure the local councils already know what is going on inside the vast majority of "massage shops" these days.

If they wanted to raid it could easily be arranged, if not already done... and it could be done for multiple other reasons, not just for catching out those operating as an "undercover full service brothel".

Other reasons could include; drug busts, organised criminal activity, workplace & wage exploitation, people working who are not legally permitted to work in the country, building code violations... as just a few.

On the flip side of the coin, there are also reasons why the council's and other authorities turn a blind eye to it as well (one being that commerical properties command big council rates from their landlords - and it's easier for the landlord to have money coming in and the ability to pay their rates on time rather than to have a vacant property with the risk of no cash flow and the council having to chase down the landlord because they aren't paying).

Guess what I'm trying to say is... the council's don't need some extortionist to tip them off 😂.

So... what shop was it ?
