13 Aug 2013 4:32 AM IST
Ghaziabad police, who claimed to have busted a sex racket, were left red-faced after being able to book only eight of the 112 young men and women they pulled out of a hotel.
Fifty-six adult couples were detained late on Saturday for engaging in what was termed a sex racket, operating out of a hotel that fell under the jurisdiction of the Bajaria police post.
Aam Aadmi Party activists staged a protest near the police post close to midnight Saturday, protesting against what they said an infringement of privacy. Police forced them to disperse.
Of the 112 detained, four couples and a hotel receptionist were charged under the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act.
Fifty two couples found themselves humiliated by the police action for doing nothing illegal. Some pleaded that they should be allowed to go home but their cries were ignored.
One elderly man said police had detained his kin, a married couple.
