The police have zeroed in on two nightclubs in Andheri and one in Charkop, Kandivli West, where unsuspecting men were allegedly lured by women whom they met on dating apps. The Amboli and Bangur Nagar police issued summons to the owners of the Andheri establishments and were in the process of sending a notice to the other one on Sunday. The authorities have begun recording the statements of victims, but many are refusing to testify.

Summons have been issued to the owners of the clubs, Godfather and Red Room. Once we interrogate them with all the evidence available, the next course of action will be decided,” an officer who is part of the investigations revealed. While the Amboli police are yet to make any headway in the case, in simultaneous investigations, the Bangur Nagar police picked up six suspects during a raid on a Goregaon hotel on September 4. The accused, Swapan Saini, 21; Shahbaz Khan, 20; Ayush Chaudhry, 20; Saral Kumar Singh, 18; and two women, are currently in police custody.
