13-year-old girl found in Russian brothel

Investigators in Russia's western region of Tatarstan have opened a criminal case after a 13-year-old schoolgirl was found to be engaging in prostitution.

An investigation found that in July this year, a massage parlour in the region's second largest city, Naberezhnye Chelny, was operating as a brothel.

The girl, a seventh-grader at a local school, was engaged in prostitution, officials said.

Other underage girls also worked at the massage parlour, investigators said.
