It's a fairly odd decision if you think about it... Why confiscate the sex toys? They're not illegal to own. And it's not exactly a challenge to prosecute a sex worker. They advertise in the local paper and one is left in no doubt that they are selling sexual services.
All I can think of is that maybe she didn't offer a freebee to certain cops and this is payback. In which case, making it illegal hasn't stopped the activity, but has instead encouraged police corruption.

They can't seem to find enough money to give them a pay rise and actually entice some people to join the SA police so now they seem to be resorting to non monetary incentives!

A very interesting use of the stopwatch, on the former staff members, one could say

i dont understand, is it illegal to run brothels in SA?

Translation: yes but it is one of those laws that is not often enforced

Same in WA. Prostitution is legal, but brothels are not. Which doesn't make any sense to me, because you'd think that legal regulated brothels would be the safest way to have legal prostitution.

you would think that. pity people tend to be more emotional than reasonable, well those making the laws at least

My guess would be it has something to do with human trafficking? Perhaps the governing authorities think that legalising brothels would aid the traffickers? The matter is still in debate though.

Well done, SA police! At 45 years old, this woman was way too old and unattractive to be working in the sex trade. Thank you, boys (and girls) in blue for enforcing some much needed quality control.
