The metropolitan police neutralized the gang of pimps who were trafficking sex slaves. The attackers were detained after they sold a 14-year-old schoolgirl in one of the hotels. They estimated the freedom and sexual integrity of the child at several hundred thousand rubles.
The 27-year-old Petersburger and his same age are held suspects in this case, the official website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation reports. They posted on the Internet ads for the sale of girls, including minors, to provide intimate services.
“In the course of further work, the police found out that the suspects plan to sell a 14-year-old schoolgirl in Moscow,” the press release said. “The deal was supposed to take place in one of the capital's hotels, where a group of a 27-year-old non-working citizen came from St. Petersburg.”
The pimp was detained after she received 800 thousand rubles for the proposed “living product”. At the same time in St. Petersburg, her accomplice was captured, which was delivered to Moscow for investigative actions. RIA Novosti publishes a video with the detention of a suspect.
On the fact of the sale of a girl, a criminal case has been instituted under Part 2 of Article 127.1 (trafficking in people) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
