Nagpur: Twenty-three executives, including four women staff of a city-based corporate firm have been named in an FIR for obscenity after CCTV cameras captured them in objectionable positions at a private farmhouse in Champa, 24km off Nagpur. The alleged rave party was part of the firm’s annual day function last week and the matter surfaced on Wednesday with police also naming farmhouse owner and two of his staff in the FIR.
“We got a tipoff about a rave party at the farmhouse and the event came under scrutiny after Panchgaon police scanned CCTV footage at the venue,” said SP Nagpur Rural Harssh A Poddar. CCTV footage will establish the sequence of events and identify illegal activities during the celebration, particularly vulgar dance sessions with bar dancers. The SP stated a detailed probe would lead to crucial information about the company, the representatives who planned the event and how bar dancers were arranged. As per police, CCTV footage played a crucial role in initiating action against those allegedly involved in organising and facilitating the party. The incident raised questions about the use of private farmhouses for corporate parties and the responsibility of venue operators to ensure events comply with law.
