The Madhya Pradesh police constituted a special investigation team (SIT) to probe honey trap racket.
The accused in the honey trap case were arrested on basis of a complaint filed by an Indore municipal corporation engineer Harbhajan Singh.
Engineer Harbhajan Singh had alleged in the FIR that two of the women were blackmailing him having shot obscene videos of him with one of them.
The extortion racket has sparked a war of words between the ruling party Congress and the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
BJP leaders claimed that one the accused Barkha Soni was Madhya Pradesh Mahila Congress social media coordinator, which was later denied by state Congress.
