The police also rescued a minor girl hailing from Bangladesh from a brothel. “A flesh trade agent from Bangladesh had lured the girl on assurance of providing her a job at a beauty parlour. He brought her to Kolkata illegally via Bengal border on September 2, and sold her to a sex racketeer in for Rs 2 lakh. The racketeer then forced the girl into prostitution at a brothel in Pune,” said senior police inspector Bharat Jadhav of social security cell.
