New Delhi, March 21 (IANS) The anti-human trafficking unit of Delhi Police has busted a sex racket being operated from a spa centre in the national capital and arrested 11 women, including a receptionist and the owner of the centre, an official said on Monday.
A police team was constituted to verify a complaint against a spa and massage centre for allegedly running a prostitution racket in Delhi.
"After preliminary investigation, a trap was laid by sending a decoy customer to the Wellness Spa Centre in Green Park. Eleven women were produced by the receptionist before the decoy customer for paid sex," DCP Deepak Yadav said.
All the 11 women along with the owner of the spa, Rajesh Kumar Gupta, were arrested.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday junked petitions against the Punjab and Haryana High Court order, which upheld the appointment of Dinkar Gupta as Punjab Director General of Police.
Punjab has always stood against external intrusions and hence must be considered as a security case, not just as an economic case at the time of budgetary allocation, state Finance Minister Manpreet Singh Badal said here on Tuesday. Badal made the demand during a virtual discussion with Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on stepping up investment, infrastructure and growth in the country.
