Naked sex cult arrests

LEADERS of a sect that recruited young people, drugged them and stripped them naked have been arrested on the Costa Blanca.

The group called itself ‘The Family of the Soul’ and masqueraded as a conventional psychotherapy group in La Pobla Tornesa, near Castellon. They offered ‘therapies’ to over 100 young victims, some minors, which involved shamanic rituals.

The sessions, costing €10,000, involved drugs given to victims to curb their free will.

Attendees of the collective group sessions had to be naked and sexual therapies were administered - mostly ‘against the will of the victims’.

So far three people have been arrested including the leader, who branded herself as a guru that claimed to know ‘the absolute truth’.

It is the second cult group to have been broken up in Castellon province in just over a year.

In March 2022 the leaders of a sex sect that operated for decades in Vistabella del Maestrat were snared.

Some of the collective had been attending meetings for over 15 years and payments were always made in cash to avoid attracting the attention of authorities.
