Patna: A digital sex racket was flourishing via the popular social networking site Facebook. Here, girls as young as 13-years were forced into sex work in a flourishing inter-state sex racket based in Patna that operated mainly through the use of emails.

Girls status were not posted to showcase one's mood or state but to advertise the girls who were being sent to customers across Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Nepal.

The expose of three sex rackets in different areas of the Bihar capital by police raids in a span of two days caused public concerns.
