Four striptease bar and seven clubs with prostitutes offering sex services have been raided in Sofia by Bulgaria's unit for fighting organized crime GDBOP.

The anti-mafia police inspected the IDs of 59 strippers and prostitutes and 16 security guards.

They found and confiscated large sums of money that were apparently earned by the prostitutes with sex services, and discovered financial violations, which led to the start of tax inspections.

The police have arrested one man, and have started two investigations, the Interior Ministry press center said as cited by the 24 Chasa daily.
