Brazil: Prostitute at Work Died After Brothel Window Plunge
A sex club has been ordered to pay thousands of pounds to the family of a prostitute who fell out of a window while on the job.
The 25-year-old sex worker was 'entertaining' a client in one of the upstairs rooms of Felina Prive, a club in Piracicaba, Brazil, when disaster struck.
The woman plummeted from the window onto the ground outside. She was paralysed in the fall and died from her injuries in 2009.
Prior to her death the woman sued Felina Prive by claiming employee rights, but the club disputed liability.
Now a judge has ordered Felina Prive to pay out £60,000 to the woman's bereaved family for the incident.
He said: "Because of the fall, she became dependent."
