An online pornography and prostitution ring headed by siblings surnamed He has been discovered by Sichuan and Shanghai police.
The duo, along with eighteen other members of the gang, were jailed this past week and were accused of spreading pornographic information via the Internet in China. They started the business at the beginning of 2005.
The sister, He Xiaoying, was responsible for recruiting prostitutes in Shanghai who then paid an "information fee" to have their contact details posted on the website. Her brother He Juyou stayed in Sichuan employing nine web developers and marketers to solicit customers online.
Police say the gang had accumulated approximately one million yuan before they were identified. The case is being processed and judgements should be released by the end of the year.
