TOKYO (TR) – Tokyo Metropolitan Police have busted a Chinese massage parlor in Shinjuku Ward for immigration violations, reports Nippon News Network (May 22).
According to police, the 31-year-old manager of the parlor, located in the Kabukicho red-light district, employed two female Chinese nationals, both aged in their 20s and residing in Japan as foreign exchange students, to provide sexual services in private rooms to male customers.
