New Delhi: Delhi Police busted a sex racket operating in Paharganj, rescuing 23 women and girls, including three minors and 10 foreign nationals, police said on Sunday. The operation led to the arrest of seven individuals involved in trafficking.
“The operation was conducted on March 20 after extensive surveillance revealed an organised trafficking network,” said DCP (central) M. Harsha Vardhan. “Our teams, based on intelligence inputs, identifed and raided multiple locations simultaneously.”
