In a significant breakthrough, the Mumbai Police have rescued a 15-year-old girl from a prostitution racket operating in the western suburbs of the city. The authorities have also arrested a woman allegedly involved in the trafficking network, according to PTI.

The operation was carried out by officials from the Crime Branch’s Unit 8 following a credible tip-off. As per PTI reports, the team swiftly organised a decoy operation and sent an undercover officer posing as a customer to a hotel in Andheri, a bustling locality in suburban Mumbai known for its commercial activity.
