---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sex trade: Mormugao Dy collector asks police to keep strict vigil ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Mormugao deputy collector, Ms Meena Goltekar has asked the Vasco police to keep strict vigil on the growing sex- trade near Baina beach. Various complaints on the increasing sex trade at Baina beach have been received by the Mormugao deputy collector. Acting on such complaints, the deputy collector has intimated the deputy superintendent of police (DySP), Vasco sub-division, Mr Subhash Goltekar to keep strict vigil on the sex trade at Baina beach.
It may be recalled that the state government acting on the High Court order demolished about 250 cubicles on June 14. Prior to the demolition, the Mormugao mamlatdar, Mr Anthony J D' Souza had made an announcement to evacuate the cubicles occupied by commercial sex workers. Interestingly, the cubicles were found vacated on the next day. It was believed that the commercial sex workers who were occupying the cubicles went to their native places by the train.
According to sources, sex trade is being carried on sly in the houses
located in front of the sulabh toilet at Baina beach. It is also noticed that the
brothel-keepers who were said to be the source in manipulating the flesh
trade, still have maintained their roots in these business.
The question now arises is whether the port town of Vasco still continues to be the new mini-Baina. The strict vigil from the police and co-operation from the citizens could stop the flesh trade. --------------------------------------------------- The Navhind Times 1/11/04 page 6 ---------------------------------------------------
