Raman Arora has been arrested again in an extortion related FIR registered at Rama Mandi Police Station.
A complaint was received against MLA Raman Arora at PS Rama Mandi. The complainant named Ramesh Kumar, son of Janak Das, resident of Lamba Pind, Jalandhar alleged that Raman Arora was illegally demanding money from him every month and was threatening and intimidating both him and his family members.
Based on his complaint, a case was registered at Police Station Rama Mandi FIR No. 253 dated 23.08.2025, under Sections 308(2), 308 (6), and 351 of the BNS.
It is alleged that Raman Arora was extorting Rs. 25,000 to Rs 30,000 every month from Guru Kripa parking contractor Ramesh Kumar.
As per the Police, the contractor Ramesh Kumar said in his complaint that he has the contract of the said parking for the last 4 years. He parks trucks in the parking and issues slips.
The victim said that in the year 2022, AAP MLA Raman Arora called him to his office and told him to give him 25 to 30 thousand rupees per month or else he will implicate him in a false case. He was threatened a lot and even told that he will implicate his family in some case.
The contractor said that he came back after telling MLA Raman Arora that he will think about it and tell him. Then one day he received a WhatsApp call, in which MLA Raman Arora said that he will tell him what is the power of an MLA.
He was threatened again and threatened to harm him and his family's life and property, after which he got very scared of the MLA's threats and started giving Rs 30,000 to the MLA every month. Many times Rs 50, 000 was also taken from him.
Even after giving the money, the MLA threatened him twice that if he spoke to anyone, he would do very bad things to him. He and his family got scared of the MLA's threats. So, out of fear, he continued to give money to the MLA every month. He appealed to the police administration for justice.
