On January 10, 2009, Lilburn Police Officers, along with Gwinnett County Officers responded to a residence in Lilburn to investigate a reported fight. Upon arrival at the house officers discovered the residence was being used to detain and traffick female and male immigrants from India.
Officers on the scene learned that a man had climbed through a window to see a female acquaintance that lived inside the house. Once inside the man was discovered by one of the men guarding the house. A physical altercation ensued.
In the subsequent investigation, officers looking into the disturbance found that six women and two men were being held in locked rooms in the home and were not permitted to leave the house without being accompanied by one of the house guards. The women were performing as exotic dancers at the Mehtil Bar, Grill, & Entertainment in Norcross. The womens’ passports, money, and return airline tickets were held by those men overseeing them.
