In an unexpected turn of events in Garhwa, Jharkhand, a couple detained during a police crackdown on alleged illegal activities decided to get married on the roadside. Three other couples caught in the hotel agreed to marry as well. The police had raided multiple hotels based on intelligence inputs about suspected sex rackets operating in the area, leading to the arrests.
One couple, supported by their families, chose to solemnize their marriage immediately outside the police station, exchanging garlands in public. Onlookers captured the moment on their mobile phones, and videos of the roadside wedding went viral on social media. The other three couples signed affidavits committing to marry soon and were released after verification.
Legal action has been initiated against hotel owners and managers for their alleged involvement in facilitating illegal activities. The police have sealed three hotels for violations and suspected unlawful operations. Authorities emphasized that this crackdown is part of a broader effort to combat immoral trafficking and illegal practices in the city, with a detailed investigation ongoing to dismantle the network.
