AAP MLA Raman Arora Remanded in VB Custody for Corruption Allegations
Imagine a government official, Raman Arora, who is accused of helping another official, Vashisht, take money from people building houses or businesses.
The police think they were working together to demand money and then let people ignore building rules.
Now, Arora is being held by the police for five days so they can ask him questions and check the evidence.
His lawyer says it's all because of politics, and the money and files the police found were already declared by Arora.
The lawyer thinks the police are setting him up because he was unhappy with his party's policies and may have considered joining another party.
AAP MLA Raman Arora was remanded to vigilance bureau custody for five days.
The remand followed the arrest of Jalandhar municipal corporation town planner Sukhdev Vashisht.
The VB claims Arora and Vashisht used a modus operandi to extort money.
Arora's counsel argued his client is a victim of political vendetta.
VB recovered gold, silver, cash, and building plan files, according to reports.
