FIR registered at chanpura PS.”

While the names of the two “pimps” were given in the initial police statement, the names of “clients” were not disclosed.
The development has left the people curious o know who the two persons could be.
Many on the social media while appreciating the prompt police action raised questions as to why the names of clients were not being made public.
Sources close to the police said the names of the clients would be disclosed in the due course of action as the investigations are underway and more arrests are likely.
