Masseur accused of sexually assaulting female client

A 31-year-old Lisle man faces up to 15 years in prison after his arrest Friday on a sex assault charge alleging he inappropriately touched a female client while giving her a massage at a Mount Prospect business.

Mount Prospect police arrested Piotr Zaniewski, of the 5800 block of Oakwood Drive in Lisle, at the business Friday.

Police said the charge follows an investigation that began Jan. 25 when a 23-year-old woman contacted a law enforcement agency to report Zaniewski had improperly touched her at the business on the 1200 block of River Road.

Zaniewski appeared in court Sunday, when a Cook County judge set his bond at $50,000. He is scheduled to return to court Wednesday.

According to state records, Zaniewski has been a licensed acupuncturist since August. He’s never faced professional discipline, records show.
