Bhopal police discovered two Ugandan women at a spa centre on Minaal shopping street without their passports and visas during a routine inspection on Thursday evening. According to Ayodhya Nagar police, the women claimed they had come to India seeking employment. Police found six women and one male employee at the Thai Aroma Wellness Centre, with four identified as residents and the manager, Pooja Narwade, confirming her role.
The two foreign nationals, named Rashim alias Macy and Irene alias Nina, were unable to provide the necessary documentation to police when asked about their entry and stay in India. Police also noted that the spa employees had not completed mandatory police verification, in compliance with an order issued by Bhopal police commissioner on September 15, 2026, mandating employee verification for such establishments.
A case has been filed against the spa's operator for allegedly violating the verification rules. Further investigation is currently underway.
