Panchkula, September 7

The police have arrested two Ludhiana residents for their alleged involvement in a flesh trade racket being operated from a guest house near Bajroli village in Morni here.

The suspects have been identified as Harjeet Singh and Karamjeet, who allegedly used to “supply women”. Both were staying at Zirakpur.

The police, on the evening of September 4, had conducted a raid on Shiwalik Guest House and rescued two women, who were allegedly forced into prostitution.

The manager of the guest house, Isham Singh from Chandimandir, was arrested during the raid.

Isham had demanded Rs7,000 from a decoy customer for providing him a woman and booking a room. The fourth accused — owner of the guest house, Mahendra Singh of Bhoj Naita village – is still out of the police net. — TNS
