The Malad Police on Sunday rescued 19 bar dancers in a mid-night raid at an orchestra bar on Link Road in Goregaon. The girls were hiding in a secret cavity in the bar's kitchen. The team led by senior inspector George Fernandes swung into action after an informer alerted cops about the dancers performing on the floor past mid-night inside Garden View Bar & Restaurant.

By the time the police reached the venue at 12.30 am on Sunday, the girls had already hidden. But the police had sent fake customers to the bar who had sent them videos from the spot.
