The Berlin police are asking for the public’s help to find three suspects who robbed a brothel on Immanuelkirchstraße in the Berlin-Pankow district. The robbery happened on the evening of June 7, when three people pretending to be clients went into the building and committed the crime.
They threatened the workers with a knife
According to reports, one of the suspects entered the brothel around 8:35 p.m., pretending to be a customer. He soon left and came back with two other men. The group then began the robbery, threatening the workers with a knife. Surveillance video also shows that one of the suspects put a woman in a headlock during the incident.
The suspects took cash, mobile phones, and jewelry from the workers’ wallets before running away. Despite the brutality, no one was physically hurt. The police have shared descriptions of the suspects:
The first suspect is between 25 and 30 years old, 180-185 cm tall, has a West Asian appearance with curly black hair and a dark beard. He wore a black cap and clothing.
The second suspect is between 20 and 25 years old, 175-180 cm tall, has a West Asian appearance and a very slim body. He has dark hair and a dark beard. He wore a black baseball cap and clothes.
The third suspect is between 20 and 25 years old, 175-180 cm tall, has a West Asian appearance and a very slim body. He has dark hair and wore black clothes.
The police are asking the public to help identify the suspects or provide any information about the robbery. They are looking for anyone who may know who the suspects are, where they might be, or who noticed anything suspicious in the area at the time.
It is much safer to work in high-class brothels
The above-mentioned robbery proved again that it is much safer to work in a high-class brothel than in small studios or illegal apartments. The best brothels in Austria, Germany, or other countries have many security measures that deter criminals and keep clients and sex workers safe.
High-class brothels use surveillance cameras at the entrance and in the brothel’s community spaces, and this fact alone can deter most shady clients and criminals. The next safety level includes bouncers, who perform face checks and don’t let risky people in.
In the rooms, sex workers can use alarm systems. In case they are in danger, they can quickly get help from the brothel personnel.
Security is key, and it is well-known that having these security measures in place is one of the most important aspects for sex workers when choosing a new workplace. Be sure to apply to the best brothels only and avoid small, shady places. We already wrote a top list about the best brothels in Vienna, don’t miss it by clicking on the button below:
