TV actress Shweta was arrested by the Anti-Vice Squad for indulging in flesh trade.

Anti-Vice Squad Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Vijayakumari, accompanied by Inspector Rajendiran, arrested her on the basis of information provided by a cinema broker, Abdul Rehman, and Muniswamy, who were allegedly running a brothel using four cinema group dancers _ Jyothi, Noor Jehan, Rajeswari and Lakshmi _ in the Kodambakkam area. They had been arrested earlier by the same squad.

Police sources said Shweta, who has acted in serials 'Inai Kodugal' and 'Anni', had been involved in prostitution for the past two years, allegedly supported by another TV screen actor Sarakesh who used to accompany her to meet clients.

Sarakesh has acted in 'Mangalyam', and 'Inai Kodugal'. Shweta has also acted in Tamil movie 'Geethai', to be released next month.

Police said Anti-Vice Squad inspector Rajendiran approached Shweta as a businessman from Tiruppur and offered her Rs 10,000 for her 'services'.

They allegedly arranged to meet near the Vadapalani bus stand with Rajendiran waiting in a car.

When Shweta got into the car, he told her he would be taking her to a guest house, but took her straight to ACP Vijayakumari who was waiting in a jeep nearby, and arrested Shweta.

  There are much more important things that need to be fixed in Tamilnadu. Arresting and incarcerating consenting adults for allegedly having sex just does not make sense. After all prostitution has been a part of Indian/Tamilian culture since time immemorial.
  
  Prostitution does not represent moral decay. The witch-hunt that is being carried out in the name of curbing prostitution completely represents the moral decay in the society. The police gets a cheap thrill, the media gets sensational headlines and the public gets to read and listen to juicy details of another human being's personal life.
  
  It is such meaningless acts of the government that repeatedly reassures that the TN govt has its head up its ass.

  After all the sex workers provide service to those who can not get some special (like orals) from the wife. So Police, do not bother them. See that they are licenced and they are medically checked up for AIDS,

  Prostitutes are very paavam creatures. They are not to be blamed. Sometimes even the husbands sell their wives to brothels. Poor creatures !! What will the girls do ? It is a shame on men. Women are NOT to be blamed at all. The customers are after all, men. Men are rogues. Men are the culprits.

  Divya Rani,
  Why you are blaming men.One thing you should realise.None of the men are standing near the road in night and look for customers.These girls need money for luxurious life and they are doing this dirty things.In cine field heroes are getting lions share in terms of money and so these girls are doing ...................................

  Well said Good man..
  Most of the cine actresses look up prostitution as their main business to make "quick money" to keep up their luxury life even after their beauty fades away.... But there are also cases where the innocent gals are pushed into this dirty field.. either by their relatives or acquaintances... There should be some NGOs ( wat do these Women organisations are doing.. running behind Manisha, Madhuri and Bipasha jus to get publicity...) which shall segregate the innocent frm the guilg... innocent shall be rehabilitated.. while the guilt shall be punished to the core... Suggestions are welcome !!

  If what I have heard is right, Most of the actresses undergo what is known as COUCH SEASON before they are given ADVANCE for the film.
  Since everyone knows everyone 's secret,the film industry people are very clever at hiding secrets of each other.
  There is no difference between selective flesh trade and regular as mentioned above.

  See! We agree that girls and prostitues are people who need a lot of sympathy! But you say "Men are rogues and culprits".. Who gave you the license to say such a word about men?? Just as many respect women, have the courtesy to respect the men too! Not all are bad people! if all are bad, then what about Abdul Kalam or Atal Bihari Vajpayee?? What about Mahatma Gandhi, Nehru, Subhash Chandra Bose, etc?? They were men too! Becoz of your words, they get a bad name!
