Sex racket involving models, actresses busted

The Goa Police on Thursday said it had busted a prostitution racket operating in Maharashtra and Goa involving actresses and models and arrested one of the key pimps.

Superintendent of Police (Crime Branch) Karthik Kashyap said the police had found crucial evidence and details of high profile clients, models and actresses from the pimp, Anand Kumar alias Andy, who was arrested from his residence in a tony housing colony on the outskirts of Panaji.

"We have obtained crucial evidence from the residence of Kumar which includes a list of his high profile clients and contacts of actresses and models," Kashyap said.

Even as police sources said the list contains detailed contacts of celebrities and politicians in the client list, Kashyap refused to divulge more details about the same.

In the raid, which the police conducted using a decoy customer, police also arrested four other pimps working under Kumar and rescued three women from another flat near Panaji.
