Tokyo (dpa) - Five school girls forced another female student to work as a prostitute so they could pay for a mobile phone bill, police said Thursday.
The five grammar school girls between 14-16 years old were arrested after allegedly beating the 16-year-old fellow student while keeping her at an apartment for three days.
They arranged sexual liaisons with three men through a personals service and the men paid the 16-year-old victim to have sex with them. The girls had said they needed pocket money and also needed to pay off a mobile telephone bill costing more than 450 dollars.
Police said the victim tried to escape her horrific ordeal by jumping out a window to commit suicide. She survived the attempt, but suffered serious injuries and required six months of therapy.
The perpetrators were to be taken to a reformatory.
