Two pimps who ran the flesh trade were arrested and a case has been registered against them at the Udupi Town police station.
The SP who arrived at the scene in plain clothes drove away the transgenders, who were allegedly involved in prostitution and extortion. Some of them failed to recognize the SP and got into an argument with him. For some time, there was a tense atmosphere. Later, a police team arrived and dispersed them.
The police department had received several complaints about a band of transgenders soliciting sexual favors, obstructing the vehicles, creating a nuisance, and extorting money from the people.
