Michael Rezec, 31, was allegedly responsible for providing the women with apartments where they would meet with clients. His wife Eugenia and her acquaintance, Olga Prishchapov, were in charge of directing the calls from the clientele to the women they employed. All three are the residents of the southern city of Ashdod.
The couple operated the illegal business across the cities of Ashdod and Bat Yam - both with a large Russian-speaking population - from until sometime this year. The indictment was filed after several women, who had been brought into Israel by the couple from Russia and Ukraine, complained to the police.

In addition, the women were requested to pose suggestively in their underwear for pictures that were used in order to advertise the business on various websites. In addition, Rezec is accused of convincing at least six women to leave their home-country by offering them employment as high-paying sex workers in Israel and a place where they can live during their stay.
After the women agreed to travel to Israel, the year-old instructed them on how to behave during airport checks in order not to alert suspicion of Israeli security.
Michael Perry, 31, from the central city of Kfar Saba, is the fourth person named in the indictment. He was responsible, among other things, for taking care of the women immediately after their arrival in the country and integrating them into the existing brothels.
