Sex racket: Girls taken to Gulf on forged passports

Kochi: The Crime Branch team investigating a sex racket in Kochi, whereby young girls were taken to the Gulf, received information on Saturday that about 12 girls were transported with the assistance of Kochi airport officials by forging the passports.
The Crime Branch investigation was held on the basis of the complaint from a girl who escaped the clutches of the racket and reached Mumbai. The sex racket operating in the Gulf has links across the country and also has agents operating in the state's major cities, the team said.
