A sex racket in Panpur village of Mandsaur district in Madhya Pradesh has been busted. The police raided houses from which they rescued seven girls, of whom three are minors. The police have also held three men in connection with the racket.

When they (my team) checked the area, they found that some houses in Panpur [Mandsaur] were being used as brothels. We have rescued seven girls, out of whom three are minors. We have arrested the father of one of the minors. We have also arrested three others.
