KATHMANDU, Nov 10: Adding to a series of crackdowns and unraveling quite a new dimension in the organized flesh trade, Police busted an internet-based prostitution racket operating in the capital, on Monday evening. Ameet Gautam, one of two Kathmandu-based members of the racket who have been running the business through a portal, nepalsexguide.com, for four months, was ambushed at Naxal by a team from the Metropolitan Police Range Kathmandu. The racket, controlled by a leader based in New Delhi, India, is said to have been supplying Nepali girls chiefly to Indian nationals visiting here. A police officer leading the crackdown told Republica that Ameet, 21, a resident of Samakhusi, had been working as the local contact for the racket and is identified as ´John´ in the homepage of the website. Police extracted from him a mobile phone numbered 977-9849055457, the same mentioned in the home page referring to contact person ´John´. The police team was searching for Ameet´s business partner, a woman named Sangeeta Shrestha, a resident of Tahachal, as this news was being prepared and they believe she would be nabbed anytime during the night. According to the homepage of the website, the racket is described as a ´´guide to beautiful Nepali women and Asian escorts offering their unrivalled services at our Nepal Sex Guide escort agency." "We currently have 40 escort girls who are offering companionship to businessmen and discerning gentlemen at five star hotels or exclusive residence. Our collection of thrilling beauties includes college girls, aspiring and established models, young professionals and even some from Nepal Film Industry," goes part of the text under the header ´About us´. The website asks to drop a note about oneself by phone or email at nepalsexguide@gmail.com and states that after receiving a complete email, the aspiring client will be given a phone number for further personal contact. The racket seems to have charged clients differently under three categories--College Students (NRS 25,000), Models (NRS 50,000) and Celebrities (NRS 100,000 onwards). Besides services in Nepal, according to the website, the racket is also operating in seven major Indian cities and girls are supplied at various rates on hourly basis. According to police, things will be clearer with the arrest of the Nepali woman who is said to be partnering with Ameet in Kathmandu. |
