Commissioner orders probe into allegation of police colluding with spa running prostitution racket

The recent raid on a spa in Mahadevapura where sleuths from the Women Protection Wing of the Central Crime Branch (CCB) uncovered a prostitution ring, seems to have opened a can of worms in the city police. 

City Police Commissioner B. Dayananda, while giving out details of the raid at Nirvana Spa, said the probe revealed that the spa was running a prostitution racket under the garb of offering therapeutic massages for four years now. “There are many allegations of the involvement of local police officials, which are being probed now. Action will be initiated based on the findings of the probe,” he said. 

Mr. Dayananda said he has ordered all police stations to keep a tab on all spas and massage parlours in their jurisdictions and keep a check on illegal activities.
