A nationwide police operation revealed a troubling pattern of coercion and financial domination. In this case, a man working across several regions including Ciudad Real, Córdoba, and Madrid allegedly forced his wife into prostitution at private venues linked to stewardess clubs, spanning multiple years. He is said to have confiscated the earnings—roughly 100,000 euros—and kept the funds to sustain control over the victim and the ongoing scheme.
The situation worsened as the husband resisted his wife’s refusals and attempts to leave the relationship. Police records describe a regime of physical violence and threats, with warnings of serious harm to ensure ongoing compliance with his demands. The woman faced extreme pressure and was compelled to provide as many as ten sexual services daily to meet the financial requirements imposed by her husband.
After the arrest, the woman was connected with a private agency working under professionals who support women who have suffered sexual abuse. This transition is part of a broader recovery process that includes access to psychological and social services aimed at healing, restoring safety, and rebuilding agency. The National Police emphasized that this case is a significant element of a wider effort to combat human trafficking and sexual exploitation.
The operation aligns with a national plan designed to combat trafficking and to safeguard potential victims from sexual abuse. Through coordinated investigations, authorities aim to dismantle coercive control networks and secure justice for those exploited. Remedial measures and victim support programs remain a priority as investigations continue, with a focus on preventing further harm and ensuring proper accountability for those involved.
