The mayor of the family-centric 15th arrondissement in Paris has made a firm commitment to halt the expansion of a controversial sex club located within a residential complex. The club owner claimed to have received approval to enlarge the establishment due to a surge in demand. La Factory, a libertine club situated in an upscale residence on rue d’Alleray, hosts uninhibited gatherings accommodating a maximum of 20 individuals—the prescribed limit for private events in commercial spaces, beyond which a police permit is required. The club’s popularity is such that it conducts up to three such gatherings daily, as revealed by the owner, identified only as “Z”.
In a recent announcement to loyal patrons, Z disclosed his intention to increase the capacity for these parties through an application submitted to the local prefecture. During these events, typically a woman is the focal point of attention from several men, all for an entrance fee of 80 euros. The owner proposed converting the basement into a “sex disco”, utilizing a former car park spanning several hundred square feet. Asserting that all necessary administrative authorizations have been secured from the town hall, Z confidently predicted the project’s realization within weeks.
However, residents have expressed strong opposition to what they perceive as “degrading” and “morally unacceptable” activities, urging the mayor to block any further expansion. One unidentified couple raised concerns about the disturbing nature of participants harboring gang rape fantasies. Amid escalating media scrutiny, Philippe Goujon, the Right-wing Republicans mayor of the 15th arrondissement, declared his intention to pursue a decree outlawing such practices, aligning unequivocally with the concerned residents. He vowed to take decisive action to curtail these controversial events, particularly in the aftermath of high-profile cases like the Mazan trial, which exposed deplorable acts of mass rape.
While the provocative nature of the club’s operations is subject to moral scrutiny, internal sources confirm its compliance with administrative regulations. Law enforcement authorities have committed to conducting identity verifications on event attendees to uphold neighborhood tranquility. Despite initial complaints prompting a pimping inquiry, the investigation was promptly closed by the Paris public prosecutor’s office, as no illegal activities were detected.
