A man and woman have been charged following police raids on Cheltenham properties.
The raid of suspected brothels in flats in Pittville Lawn and Suffolk Road and of a property in Witcombe Place by police in Gloucestershire on September 12, and buildings in Dagenham, King’s Cross and Tottenham by the Metropolitan Police resulted in arrests.
