Tokyo police have arrested a 37-year-old manager of an adult entertainment shop in Saitama Prefecture for allegedly paying illegal cash kickbacks to a street recruiter
TOKYO (TR) – Tokyo Metropolitan Police have arrested a 37-year-old manager of an adult entertainment shop in Saitama Prefecture for allegedly paying illegal cash kickbacks to a street recruiter, reports Nippon News Network (Oct. 15).
Makoto Honda, who operates a fuzoku (commercial sex) business in Tsurugashima City, is accused of handing over 153,000 yen in cash to a male “scout” in January of this year.
During police questioning, Honda refused to comment on the allegations, reportedly telling investigators, “I don’t want to say anything right now.”
The illicit payment, known within the industry as a “scout back,” was provided as a reward for introducing a female worker to the establishment.
The male recruiter involved in the transaction has also been referred to prosecutors. Police investigators believe the scout had an ongoing arrangement to siphon off 10 percent of the recruited woman’s total sales at the shop.

东京（TR）——据日本新闻网（10月15日）报道，东京警视厅逮捕了埼玉县一家成人娱乐场所的37岁经理，他涉嫌向街头招募者支付非法现金回扣。
在敦岛市经营风俗（商业性交易）业务的本田诚被指控于今年1月向一名男性“星探”支付了153000日元现金。
在警方讯问期间，本田拒绝就这些指控发表评论，据报道他告诉调查人员：“我现在不想说任何话。”
这种在业内被称为“介绍费”的非法款项，是为向该机构介绍女员工而支付的奖励。
涉案的男性招募者也已被移交检方。警方调查人员认为，这名招募者与被招募的女性在店铺中存在某种默契，会从中抽取其销售额的10%。
