SHOCKING: HUGE 'SEX RACKET' BUSTED INSIDE SPA - 'OBJECTIONABLE ITEMS' RECOVERED

The Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) busted a sex racket which was running under the front of a spa and massage centre in Tilak Nagar, West Delhi. 

"Used condoms and other objectionable items were also recovered from the spa named 'Amazing Spa',"  the Commission  said in a statement.

The Commission’s 181 helpline received an anonymous complaint wherein the complainant informed that several spas have been running even during the pandemic and some of them are indulging in illegal prostitution activities. 

Swati Maliwal, the DCW Chairperson was informed about it by member Kiran Negi.  A team was constituted immediately to take up the matter. 

"When the team visited the given location with the police and entered a spa named 'Amazing Spa' and found several customers in the centre. Used condoms were also recovered from the centre in large numbers. The receptionist was asked to call the owner but as soon as he got to know about the inspection, he switched off his phone," the commission said.

The customers present during the time of inspection were taken to the police station. The police also reportedly seized CCTV footage from that place. The statements of all girls who worked at the spa were also taken. 

“An FIR has also been registered under section 269, 270 IPC and an investigation has been initiated in the matter. As soon as the other spa owners got the information about the crackdown, all of them shut down their outlets immediately,” Times Now reported. 

"We had exposed the spa sex racket in Delhi and we were shocked to see how these centres have mushroomed in every nook and corner of the capital. Central government guidelines have not permitted opening up of spa centres in the country but it's shocking to note that these centres are functioning freely and the police and MCD claim to be unaware of it,” Maliwal stated while speaking about the incident. 

"Not only is prostitution illegal but opening spa centres can cause large-scale spread of infection. We are issuing a notice in the matter to police and MCD. How can such illegal activities take place without the police and MCD knowing about them?" she added.
