The city police will closely coordinate with its Nagpur counterparts after a high-profile prostitution racket, which includes some Bollywood actors, was busted in the Orange Town on Thursday.
The Mumbai police have deputed officers from the Oshiwara police station to assist a team of Nagpur (Rural) police. DCP (Zone-IX) Vinay Kumar Choubhe said, “All assistance will be given to the Nagpur (Rural) police.
According to reports, the people who run the websites live in Lokhandwala, therefore the Oshiwara police will be asked to co-operate with them.”
The Nagpur police said on Friday that a trap was laid at a farmhouse in a village in Hingna, 30 km from Nagpur where the police arrested two professional models and an actress who were allegedly booked for Rs4 lakh to provide sexual favours to their client.
Yashasvi Yadav, SP (Nagpur) police, said they had received a tip-off that two websites, run by one Nick alias Niraj and his associates Rajiv, residents of Lokhandwala, provided contact numbers of call girls, some of who were into films and modelling and they were put a decoy customer to strike a deal.
