New Delhi, Aug 31: Delhi Police have arrested a couple who allegedly ran the biggest trafficking and prostitution racket in Capital's red light area of GB Road.
With the routes of the alleged syndicate stretching all the way to Nepal and pecuniary gains made by the couple Affaq Husain and Saira running into crores of rupees, the Delhi Police Crime Branch have slapped the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against them, the first such case in GB Road.
Together, the two own property worth nearly Rs 100 crore from the illegal business, said the police, including houses in Delhi and Bangalore and even a school, which the two run in the name of their daughter.
Victim turns perpetrator
Saira, who had herself been trafficked by her first husband Talab Husain has been in the trade longer than Affaq.
In the past 26 years, they have trafficked over 5000 girls from Nepal and West Bengal. In GB Road, they run six kothas (brothels) including the biggest — number 64. “To hide his criminal activities, Hussain had handed over the management of the Kothas of G.B. Road in Delhi to managers andnayikas (wardens). Hussain used to pay them 15 per cent of the earnings,” said Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Ravindra Yadav. This network and two others account for nearly 80 per cent of the flesh trade on GB Road and slapping of MCOCA instead of the conventional IPC or Immoral Trafficking Act will ensure a better deterrence, said the police.
The women were sold to the brothel owners at G.B. Road for Rs 1-2 lakh.
“The victims were thrashed, confined in hidden cells, intoxicated and kept starved for many days to force them in this activity. While the victims are compelled to live in hell like circumstances, their distressed family members keep running from pillar to post to trace them. The girls are paid meagre amount once the amount spent for buying them along with interest at the rate of eight to ten per cent per month is recovered from their earnings,” said Mr. Yadav.
Bengaluru, Feb 14: After the swearing-in of ten former JDS and Congress MLAs, political boundaries seem to have become more fluid, with little clarity on who is on whose side. When Honnali BJP MLA Renukacharya visited senior Congressman DK Shivakumar at the latter’s residence, many eyebrows were raised over the reason behind the meeting. There was speculation over why Renukacharya would be meeting a man who is, in all likelihood, slated to be the next KPCC president.

Thank God these culprits are caught ..... they are just normal people ...they are not worshiped people by Muslims as in yours how Aashram...Nithyananda....and other Godmen runned prostitute institutions.....hundreds of pimps criminals and rapists are caught without burka and beard daily from saffron color goons and goonesses....so what will be your comment.....never saw it on board..
We are always with the law ...we never defend criminals as you do....any saffron criminal caught dharna protest and violence. On streets demanding for release...
Are these buggers followers of Shanawaz Hussain? As his name ends with Hussain.
Burkha Olagina Rahasya!
Dear #2 Mayank, mumbai
There is no Disgrace to muslim community. In all religion there are some people who do bad that does not mean that because of that their religion becomes disgrace. In hindu religion also there are some people who do this type of business and it is not correct to say that hinduism is disgraced. The problem of these people is they do not study and follow their religion. If people study the holy scriptures of their religion then we can avoid these social crimes.
If they did it then they must be punished severely.
Another thing the supply is based on demand, so cant the men control themselves, is their wife not enough for them? or cant they get married to fulfill their desires?
If men can stay away from illegal desires then all this crime can be stopped to a major extent. Respect the women.
Dear Mayank
As soon as the news comes .. Dont judge. Many times we have be deceived...If its proved right, then they should be punished.
But dear,
Owaisi is not a cheddi member. He will not voice for criminals.
Sadhvi prachi, Aseemanand, Kalburgi killers, Ghandhi killers, Nithyananda sex racket ... cheddis tried to save them all but did not get success till date...
I request government of india to investigate this case and if they are found guilty with this filthy act then please hang them in the public. They have no rights to live in this earth.
These people are to be hanged till death
The crime what they have done is totally Unislamic. So do not judge islam by people's name or appearance. Islam strongly condemn such act.
Disgrace to Muslim community. Wonder why Owaisi does not supply lawyers and fight for them.
why is this whore Saira Begum wearing a burka still when she is in the flesh trade business and exploiting minor girls . Is she still a follower of Islam ?
