According to a Princeton Police Department release, it was later determined the women were being forced to work at multiple locations in Princeton, as well as the nearby towns on Melissa and McKinney.

In addition to Katkoori and Gunda, Princeton police also issued arrest warrants for 24-year-old Chandran Dasireddy and 37-year-old Anil Male.

Further charges remain pending as of July 9.
