THREE JAILED FOR TRAFFICKING WOMEN FOR SEX IN LEEDS
The investigation showed how the women had been transported by the couple on a daily basis to massage clubs, including premises in Leeds and Sheffield.
The women were forced to work up to 20 hours a day, seven days a week, providing sexual services at the venues, with all the money they earned then handed directly to Michniewicz and Timoszek.
The pair were assisted by Michniewicz's cousin Mariusz Seretny, who was living at Grange Close, Hunslet.
Evidence linked him to travel bookings, advertisements on sex work websites and money transfers out of the UK, according to police.
Officers arrested Michniewicz and Timoszek at their home address on 14 September 2016 on suspicion of offences relating to modern slavery.
Several women were found at the address and safeguarded by police.
Items recovered from the property included £16,000 in cash, mobile phones and handwritten ledgers detailing the earnings and debt for each of the women.
