Two guys were given a hot chase by six prostitutes after one of them was assaulted for charging an outrageous fee. The prostitutes pounced on the man and gave him severe beatings for attempting to molest their colleagues and refusing to yield to his offer for a round of sex. A friend who came to his rescue was not spared. This took place at Maxxisco Gardens in the Wa municipality of the Upper East Region last Sunday. The scuffle resulted in the throwing of plastic chairs and breaking of beer bottles as they were used as weapons by both the man and the prostitutes in their fight. The prostitutes at the center of the scuffle whose name was only given as Jennifer told The Spectator that she was in her room at Maxxisco Gardens where she had been plying her trade at about 5:30 p.m. when she heard a knock on her door. She said she opened the door only to see a guy who introduced himself and expressed interest in patronizing her services. �I didn�t like his appearance though, but I decided to see what his offer was, and when I inquired whether he wanted short time or full time, he responded by saying he wanted full time,� she said. Jennifer who is a Nigerian said, the guy indicated that he would prefer to carry her away to his house so she could spend the night there. However, she informed him that as part of her conditions of work, all her clients sleep with her at the hotel and going to a client�s house was out of the business. As he kept insisting on taking me to his house, I decided to discourage him by telling him I would agree to his request only if he would pay GH300.00 upfront as the charge for my services. �Just when I mentioned the amount the guy got angry and asked how I could charge that outrageous sum for just a night�s bout of sex and I told him it was because he was insisting on taking me to his house,� he said. According to Jennifer, while the negotiation was ongoing, the guy was joined by a friend and he informed him that I was charging GH300.00 for the night, I looked at the friend and told him to give that amount to his mother and rather sleep with her,� she explained. Jennifer said her response infuriated the guy and his friend who hit her on the head and she fell on the floor. She said after rising from the floor, she quickly hit the guy and it turned into a fight between her and the guys. However, her colleagues who were around at the time, quickly joined in the fight. It turned into a free for all fight but they managed to overpower the guy and beat him until he ran away.
