Thane Police Bust International Sex Racket
The Thane Police recently stopped a bad operation where a woman from Thailand was making other women from Thailand do bad things for money.
The police got a tip from a kind person and sent someone to pretend to be a customer.
Then they went to the place and caught the bad woman and saved the two victims.
The police are still checking if there are more bad people involved and more victims.
The saved women and the bad woman had already stayed in India longer than they were allowed, so the police are making sure the victims are safe and following the rules to send them back to a safe place.
Thane Police arrested a Thai national for running a sex racket and rescued two Thai women.
The operation was based on a tip-off from social activist Dr. Binu Varghese.
Police used a decoy customer before raiding the location.
The arrested pimp and rescued victims had expired visas.
The case is being investigated under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and PITA Act.
