The pair, identified as 46-year-old Luigi Cucu and 37-year-old Costela Soare, were jailed at Wolverhampton Crown Court after admitting charges linked to the commercial sexual exploitation of women. Officers from West Midlands Police launched the intelligence-led investigation in 2020 after receiving information that women were being advertised online for prostitution and moved through a network of short-term addresses.
