Raigad: 6 held for running prostitution racket

The police had received a tip-off that several high profile escort services were active in the area. “The accused provided high-profile women to customers. The customers booked hotel rooms online and the women were sent there. Sometimes, if a customer agreed to pay more, even drugs were supplied, like in this case. Even models from Mumbai are involved,” said an officer.

“The six arrested have been booked under the NDPS Act and for pushing women into prostitution… The five women who have been rescued have been sent to a remand home for now,” Paraskar said.
