Trio running fake ‘men’s esthetic’ salon in Shinjuku arrested for prostitution新宿三名经营假冒“男士美容”沙龙的女子因卖淫被捕
Tokyo Metropolitan Police have re-arrested three men, including a 26-year-old business manager, for operating a brothel out of a Shinjuku Ward apartment
TOKYO (TR) – Tokyo Metropolitan Police have re-arrested three men, including a 26-year-old business manager, for operating a brothel out of a Shinjuku Ward apartment, reports the Sankei Shimbun (Sep. 30).
Ryota Kasahara, the operator of the sex parlor Shinjuku Shinchi Plus, and two accomplices have admitted to allegations of violating the Anti-Prostitution Law, according to police.
On June 23, the trio allegedly conspired to set up a “playroom” inside the condominium, located in Hyakunincho district, by providing a space for female employees to prostitute themselves to clients.
According to investigators, the suspects used websites to disguise the business as a “men’s esthetic” massage salon. In reality, female employees were directed to engage in prostitution for a basic rate of 10,000 yen per 15 minutes.
Police estimate that the operation, along with its successor shop Bonno-ji, raked in approximately 80 million yen in revenue between March and September of this year.
The case may point to a much larger criminal network. An analysis of the suspects’ smartphones has revealed suspected ties to Natural , one of Japan’s largest illegal scouting syndicates.
Authorities are continuing their investigation to uncover the full scope of the group’s operations.

东京（TR）——据《产经新闻》（9月30日）报道，东京警视厅再次逮捕了三名男子，其中包括一名26岁的企业经理，他们涉嫌在新宿区的一间公寓内经营妓院。
据警方称，新宿新地Plus性服务场所的经营者笠原亮太及其两名同伙已承认违反《反卖淫法》的指控。
6月23日，这三人涉嫌合谋在位于百人町的公寓内设立“游戏室”，为女员工提供场所，让她们向顾客卖淫。
据调查人员称，嫌疑人利用网站将营业场所伪装成“男士美容”按摩沙龙。实际上，他们指示女性员工从事卖淫活动，基本收费为每15分钟1万日元。
警方估计，该店铺及其后继店铺 Bonno-ji 在今年 3 月至 9 月期间共赚取了约 8000 万日元的收入。
此案可能指向一个更大的犯罪网络。对嫌疑人智能手机的分析显示，他们可能与日本最大的非法童子军组织之一“Natural”有关联。
当局正在继续调查，以揭露该组织活动的全部范围。
