Acting on a tip-off that a rave party had been organised in honour of a recently retired ACP at Kalote village in Khalapur, Raigad, the police raided the farmhouse where the party was being held and detained 12 women, including a Ukrainian model, and 14 men late on Saturday night.

While the rave party angle turned out to be false as no drugs were found on any of the revellers, the police claimed that the women had been brought to the farmhouse to dance and that some of the people at the party did not have a drinking permit.
