Nagpur: In a significant operation, the Lakadganj Police on Friday rescued a minor girl who had fallen victim to a flesh trade racket masterminded by a 40-year-old pimp from the notorious Ganga Jamuna area. Acting on a tip-off, officers conducted a raid on the residence of Bhuri Sonu Uchiya, originally a resident of Gwalior and currently residing in the Ganga Jamuna vicinity, and successfully rescued the minor girl.
Lakadganj cops had received credible intelligence indicating that Bhuri was orchestrating a prostitution syndicate from Ganga Jamuna and had coerced a 16-year-old girl into the trade by luring her with money. Following this, the police raided the premises, leading to the successful rescue of a 16-year-old girl who had been ensnared in the clutches of this illicit trade.
