UP MLA arrested in Goa dance bar raid


Panji, Aug 28 (PTI): Uttar Pradesh MLA Mahendra Singh was among the six persons arrested by Goa Police following a raid at a Panaji dance bar who have been booked under the Anti-Prostitution Act, the police said. Police inspector Rajendra Prabhudesai Tuesday night said that Singh, the MLA from Sitapur constituency, was arrested Monday night.

Six girls, from Punjab, Delhi, Mumbai, UP and Chhattisgarh, were rescued during the raid.

Prabhudesai said police had already informed the UP Assembly Speaker about Singh's arrest as that was mandatory under law. Singh is reportedly a four-time MLA from Sitapur. Earlier, DSP Mahesh Gaonkar said that two other people from UP, were also arrested.

    Dear Readers.
    Please forgive me, when I give some wrong comment. It may hurt your feelings. I am not a supporter of any party, but I don't like some of our readers support blindly some political parties. Either Congress, BJP, JD or any other party workers are saints. Politics means only cheating the public.

    If you argue with wife she will fight back

    If you are broad minded she will take advantage.

    If you talk to some one (other than your wife) she will doubt

    If you try to please her she will sit on you head.

    If you firt with a girl, you will be fixed in rape incident

    Man, after slogging in the office and seek some relaxation (dance bar) Police will catch (for nothing)

    Where to go ?

    Dear Mr. STAN, DUBAI,

    Wealth is nothing. People are running behind wealth and that is the reason so much chaos in the society.
    I know that you poke a fun. Hahahaha… this is also a fun.
    A proverb of the old says:
    If wealth is lost something is lost.
    If the character is lost everything is lost.
    Kindly don't say: This proverb is of the yester years, outdated and not of 21st century.

    21 century: If character is lost who cares.
    If wealth is lost, fight till death.
    The Holy Bible says: Proverb 39:6 Man is a mere phantom as he goes to and fro: He bustles about, but only in vain he heaps up wealth, not knowing who will get it.

    Please note that if you drink liquor in legally licensed bar is not crime, but if you drink illicit liquor in unlicensed bar is crime in India. Taking charges for any work is not crime but if they take bribe it is criminal act. So people when we comment, we have see the case properly.

    The 3 people were caught not in dance bar or club. They were caught in Viva Goa Hotel special room with 6 girls (4 from Delhi and 1 from Maharastra and 1 from Punjab) The 6 girls were unknown to each other. The expenses for 1 night in hotel is Rs 20,000/- or more per night. ( See India TV news.) Just tell me like you person will enter such hotel/club/dance bar which is having 6 girls for 3 customers???? Police booked this case under the Anti-Prostitution Act,not as illegal dance bar.
