The gang was led by a hotel owner and a woman from Chandigarh. The accused lured the customers through social media and arranged for them women from different states. “They will share a commission.

Another accused Shankar Kumar in his white Volkswagen car (DL12 CM- 4487) used to bring women from different places,” a report in The Times of India quoted SHO Anil Rajput of Sector 58 police station as saying.
The police registered a case under sections 370A(2) (exploitation of a trafficked person) and 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of the Indian Penal Code and relevant sections of the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act, 1956.

The Delhi Police said the gang’s kingpin, identified as Ravinder Singh, was an employee of a similar call center earlier. He stole CPUs from his workplace after his salary was withheld. He thereafter started his own call center using the data stored in the CPUs.
