He said the girls used to be brought from Thailand on work visa and forced into flesh trade at the spa.
A case under relevant sections of the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act has been registered in this regard and investigations are underway, police said.
According to them, all the accused will be produced in a local court on Sunday.
