💨 Abstract

In Maharashtra's Thane district, police have arrested a former corporator and three others for allegedly attempting to extort Rs 1.5 crore from a developer. The ex-corporator, who had filed complaints against a builder redeveloping a slum in Mumbai, had initially demanded Rs 10 crore to withdraw the complaints, but reduced it to Rs 1.5 crore during negotiations.
