Raman Arora, an MLA for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Jalandhar, ਪੰਜਾਬ, was imprisoned for collusion in a corruption case. The ਪੁਲਿਸ have now charged MLA Arora with forced extortion at the Rama Mandi ਪੁਲਿਸ station, despite the High Court having granted him regular bail. After appearing in court ਅੱਜ, Arora was placed under three days of ਪੁਲਿਸ remand. According to the victim in this case, the MLA extorted money from them and threatened them.
MLA Arora reportedly has a firm grip on the Rama Mandi ਪੁਲਿਸ station. Following Arora’s incarceration, industrialist Nitin Kohli, the party central in-charge, was implicated, sparking talks about holding a by-election in the central region. MLA Arora continued to hold his position after this. Now, the ਪੁਲਿਸ filed a case during the inquiry at the end of August following the receipt of a fresh complaint against the MLA.
In court, MLA Arora was brought.
