A syndicate operating five gyms (KGN-1.0, KGN-2.0, KGN-3.0, B-Fit, Iron Fire) allegedly targeted around 30 Hindu women who had joined for fitness training. Members befriended the women, obtained personal photos/videos, used AI tools to create morphed explicit content, then blackmailed them for sexual exploitation and to pressure religious conversion.
Six people were arrested, including GRP head constable Irshad Khan (logistical support) and gym owners/trainers Mohammad Sheikh Ali Alam, Faizal Khan, Zaheer, Shadab, and prime accused Farid Ahmed (arrested after an encounter). Four of the five gyms were run by three brothers and a brother-in-law. All five gyms were sealed. Obscene AI-edited material and chats recovered from mobiles.
