Hyderabad police have cracked down on a gang involved in human trafficking and prostitution in the Secunderabad area. Acting on a tip, the North Zone Task Force raided a location in Gopalapuram and made several arrests.
The police rescued two young women from Bangladesh who were being held against their will. They have been moved to a safe shelter for protection.
Officers arrested three suspects in the raid. The main accused, Bimalsen, also known as Subrata, had recently shifted from West Bengal to Secunderabad. They also caught Sakil Hussain, known as Mulla, a man from Bangladesh, and a customer named SA Nazir, also from West Bengal.
Investigators revealed that Subrata was running a secret brothel in the area. He brought in women illegally from Bangladesh with help from two female traffickers, who acted as suppliers. These women were lured with false promises of a better life and were transported through West Bengal into Hyderabad.
Police stated that three more members of the gang, all believed to be from Bangladesh, are on the run. A manhunt is underway to track them down.
The Gopalapuram police have taken custody of the arrested individuals and are continuing the investigation to uncover the full network behind this operation.
Officials emphasized that efforts will continue to identify and rescue more victims and ensure strict action against those involved in this illegal trafficking racket.
