Kerala sex racket case: Policemen arrested
Two Kozhikode police officers, Shaijith K and Sanith K, were arrested for allegedly helping run a sex racket disguised as a spa in Malapparamba.
The brothel, operated by a woman named Bindu, was busted in a June 6 raid that led to nine arrests—including clients and sex workers.
Police say the officers supported the operation and were involved in the dealings with Bindu.
Officers were under surveillance for 6 months
The two officers were finally caught in Korangad while trying to reach another hideout, after dodging arrest for weeks by switching off their phones and moving around.
Investigators say they have evidence of financial dealings between the officers and Bindu.
Both had been under surveillance for six months before being suspended, and are now in custody as the investigation digs deeper into phone records used to lure clients.
