Synopsis

A dhaba the Bengaluru Mysuru highway near Naguvanahalli, was found to be running flesh trade. Sex workers were made to hide in a tunnel dug in the wall. NGO Odanadi and a cook from the dhaba exposed the racket. 

An NGO from Mysuru with the help pf a cook from a dhaba has exposed the dhaba owner carrying on flesh trade hiding women behind a wall in which a tunnel was dug, reported Kannada Prabha.

A dhaba called Marga on the Bengaluru Mysuru highway near Naguvanahalli, Srirangapattana, was found to be running flesh trade by hiding the women in a tunnel dug in the wall.  The dhaba was raided by police 5 years ago on complaints of flesh trade, on information by an NGO Odanadi.  After 5 years Odanadi suspected that the dhaba may be continuing the practice.

SP Radhika led the team of officers who raided the dhaba and arrested a total of 21 men, with 11 of them from Kerala. Police rescued 7 women from north India. During the raid 2 students were caught.  Even after searching the entire dhaba women were not found.

At first they were doubtful if the information was correct. However, on closer observation the police found a crack in the wall, which on examination was actually a tunnel of 6 feet. When it was opened, 7 north Indian women were found inside.
