12-year old Russian girl commits suicide after her parents caught her watching porn

A 12-year-old girl in Russia has committed suicide after her parents banned her from watching porn sent to her by older teenage friends.

 The primary school sixth grade pupil Dasha Loginova from the western city of St Petersburg jumped from a 14th floor window after arguing with her parents.

 Her parents had reportedly been furious after they found her watching porn sites on the internet and banned her from looking at it again, accusing her online friends of being a bad influence.

 An argument had started as a result and the girl had locked herself in her room, and at some stage after that had opened the window and jumped to her death from the 14th floor.

 Prior to that she logged onto her social media network and written: "I would like my parents to understand me."

 The girl was very active on different social networks like V Kontakte, Twitter, Instagram and Ask.fm.

 Her mother is a doctor and the father works in army. Her school colleagues confirmed Dasha had many friends who were three or four-years-older.

 Police spokesman Mitrofan Tokaryev told local media that the girl was raised in a normal two-parent household, that had not been in any trouble with authorities or child custody services. He said: "There is an ongoing investigation.

 We aren't excluding the possibility of bringing up charges of inciting a suicide against either her online contacts or her family."

 The girl's parents reportedly wanted to divorce and her mother had planned to return to her hometown of Yeisk on the Black Sea.

 Dasha's older sister was killed in a car accident nine-years-ago. In 2012, Russia adopted harsh laws on the distribution of 'harmful material' - including porn - to minors.

 Government authorities in the capital Moscow say the goal is to protect minors from websites that feature explicit sexual content, details about how to commit suicide, drug use, and sites that solicit children for pornography.

 If the websites themselves cannot be shut down, internet service providers (ISPs) and web hosting companies can be forced to block access to the offending material
