A 22-year-old Russian woman was detained on Thursday in western Moscow after she attempted to sell four African women into sexual slavery. The Russian woman accepted nearly $2,000 from an undercover police officer posing as a pimp, in exchange for the women, who came from Nigeria and Ghana.
Moscow police said they arranged a sting operation after receiving a tipoff that someone was trying to sell four women from Africa.
Prosecutors have filed criminal charges against the young woman, a Muscovite, whose name was not released by police.
The detained woman offered to find jobs in Moscow for the Africans, police said.
