AAMSU Members Arrested for Alleged Extortion of Cattle Trader
A group of students from a minority student union in Lakhimpur were arrested.
They are accused of stopping a cattle trader's truck and demanding money, even though the trader had the necessary documents.
The trader reported the incident to the police, leading to the arrests of the student leaders.
However, the student union says that the arrests are part of a bigger political plan.
Twelve AAMSU members were arrested in North Lakhimpur for allegedly extorting a cattle trader.
The arrests followed an FIR filed by cattle trader Rashidul Haque.
Haque reported that AAMSU members stopped his truck carrying cattle and demanded money.
The AAMSU members allegedly took Rs 15,000 from the truck driver.
Lakhimpur AAMSU claims the arrests are part of a political conspiracy.
