Paul Attard, 58 of St Julians, owner of Paradiso Club in Sliema, and a couple who run it, Andra Togoi, 28 and her boyfriend Gary Camilleri, 38, have pleaded not guilty to running a brothel and allowing the place to be used for prostitution and immoral acts.
The court was told that policemen had entered the club earlier this month and found a woman dancing topless.
All three were granted bail against a personal guarantee of €7,000 each.
Dr Gianella de Marco and Dr Gian-Luca Caruana Curran were counsel for Mr Attard while Dr Shazoo Ghaznavi and Dr Robert Galea appeared for the couple.
