Mumbai: The Mumbai Crime Branch has suspended the licences of 11 orchestra bars for 30 days after finding that they were allegedly operating as dance bars and violating Public Entertainment Licence conditions.
Women Singers Found in Revealing Clothes, Making Obscene Gestures
During raids, women employed as singers were allegedly found interacting closely with customers, wearing revealing clothes and making obscene gestures. The police also detected secret compartments, concealed passages and underground hideouts allegedly used to hide performers during raids.
The action follows the state government’s strong stand against obscenity in dance bars during the ongoing legislative session.
Suspended Bars Include Senorita, Sapphire, Commando & Others
The suspended establishments are Senorita, Sapphire, Sunshine Punjab, Raj Palace and Blue Diamond in Girgaum; Commando, Urvashi and Sai Prasad in Andheri; Vilas Lunch Home in Dahisar; and Chiranjeevi and Swagatam in Malad.
The police are monitoring other suspected orchestra bars, while the home department has warned of strict action against further licence violations.
