The man accused of sexually assaulting a woman during a massage at the Mall of Abilene is not licensed by the state.
Now the Texas Department of State Health Services is taking action against the man and the massage parlor he worked for.
47-year-old Jingbo Xu was arrested Tuesday for allegedly groping a woman who had fallen asleep in a massage chair.
A spokesperson for the state department says Xu is not a licensed massage therapist, and his employer, Li Sun Acupressure and Massage, does not have a massage establishment license.
The state has now sent a letter for cease and desist.
The spokesperson says if it doesn't happen, they will hand the issue over to local law enforcement.
Under state law, failure to provide valid licensing is considered a criminal violation.

Does the mall not check these things out before leasing or renting space?
