Silchar: Four girls, including a minor,
were rescued from a brothel in a joint operation by both
Meghalaya and Assam Police in Silchar town of Assam's Cachar
district, police said.
The four girls from Meghalaya were brought here by a
trafficker, whose name the police refused to divulge, and sold
to Gita Sinha and Suku Debnath, who run a brothel near Fatak
Bazar, the largest wholesale and retail market in the southern
part of the state.
The Meghalaya Police, acting on a tip-off, informed
their Assam counterparts and rescued the four.
The trafficker was absconding but the police arrested
Sinha and Debnath.
