In June this year, a high-profile sex racket was busted by police in Mumbai. The racket was being run under the guise of a production house, at Versova. Cops arrested a 24-year-old model who was running the gang in Versova and rescued two models.
The police had received information about the illegal activites at the flat by an NGO called Indian Rescue Mission, after which raid was conducted.
According to reports, India Rescue Mission president James Varghese got information that Rekha Vaishnav, who claimed to be a model, was running the immoral business under the guise of a production house named ‘VR Entertainment’.
Rekha used to lure aspiring models to come and get a break in Bollywood and later force them to work on her directions. According to cops, many businessman and known faces of Bollywood were in touch with Rekha.
