Himachal Pradesh: Two Arrested for Extortion in Una
Two men, Amrish Rana and Amit Mankotia, were arrested in Una, Himachal Pradesh, for allegedly extorting money from a crusher owner.

A case was filed two months prior, and the men were at large, seeking bail.
Their bail request was denied, leading to their arrest.
One of the accused, Amrish Rana, was previously sentenced to life imprisonment for a 1999 murder case, but was released last year after serving 25 years due to good behavior.
Police in Una arrested two individuals on extortion charges.
The accused are Amrish Rana and Amit Mankotia.
They were accused of threatening a crusher owner and his workers.
A case was registered about two months prior to the arrest.
