Bangalore, January 29: Central Crime Branch police arrested a couple and two Kannada TV serial actresses for alleged involvement in human trafficking. They were arrested in their HSR Layout house on Saturday.
R Krishnamurthy, 63, his wife K Saroja alias Sushma, 50, both residents of 7th Sector, HSR Layout as well as actors B Anita, 35, of Bilekalli in Bannerghatta Road and Deekshita Shivanna, 24, of Tiptur.
Krishnamurthy and Saroj were running the racket in their house on 20th Cross, 9th Main. Saroja reportedly brought many TV serial and movie actresses to her house for cultural get-togethers, particularly over weekends.
"One of their neighbours informed police about the illegal activities. Sometime ago, Krishnamurthy is said to have hired goons to threaten the locals who dared question the racket. Anita and Deekshita would befriend men who approached them at shooting spots and other places," police added.
