The city police today claimed to have busted an alleged sex racket running from an upscale area with the arrest of three persons.

Acting on a tip-off, police found two men and a woman inside a car parked in a deserted area near a restaurant last night and arrested them for indulging in alleged "immoral acts", said a press release.

The woman (name not disclosed) hailed from Maharashtra while the two men, identified as Dilip Kumar Goyal (32) and Arjun Pal (28), were city residents, police said.

Goyal allegedly admitted that he ran a sex racket from his house and he had called the woman to the city.

Police also seized Rs 5,000 in cash, three mobile phones and some "objectionable material" from their possession, the release added.

A case under the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act was registered against them, it said.
