Hunted: Police have released an identikit of one of the men who allegedly kidnapped and raped a 12-year-old in Ekaterinburg
Police are hunting for two men who allegedly kidnapped and brutally raped a 12-year-old girl to make paedophile porn in Russia.
The schoolgirl was seized by two men as she walked home from a music lesson in Ekaterinburg, east of the Ural mountains.
Police say it is a ‘miracle’ the girl survived her nine and a half hour ordeal, during which she was raped several times.
Panic has now spread in the city, which has around 1.4million inhabitants, and hundreds of police officers are flooding the streets as they hunt the attackers.
The girl told police how a bag was thrown over her head and she was dragged into a car which drove to a residential district.
She was placed into a large bag and carried into a flat where she was subjected to a vicious sex attack lasting more than two hours, being raped by both men with the entire sickening ordeal filmed.
Then she was forced to hold up a sign advertising the web address of a child porn channel to the camera.
The traumatised girl was put back inside the bag, then driven to the outskirts of the city, and dumped on the side of the road around midnight.
It took her several hours to free herself from the bag. and finally managed to escape it at 3am.
The child then flagged down the first passing motorist who called police.
She says one of the brutal attackers wore ‘animal skin trousers’ and was aged around 50.

The girl has given key clues to detectives, say local media reports.
‘For several hours the girl was being raped by two men and everything was filmed,’ reported local news website 66.ru.
‘It is not clear yet if it was a live broadcast online or not.
‘After the rape, the girl was told to hold a sheet of paper in her hands with the address of a website and she was photographed like this.
Following the sex attack, she was ‘taken to the bathroom and carefully washed’.
Despite this, forensic experts collected biological material which is expected to enable police to identify the men’s DNA.
One mother at a local school gate said today: ‘There is fear and panic in this district.
‘I am not allowing my 13 year old daughter to walk to school and back alone.’
