Assam Businessman Alleges Cops Threatened To Frame Him Over "Jihadi Link"
Nine police officers, including an IPS, have been arrested in Assam after a local businessman alleged that he was being extorted by them. The businessman, Rabiul Islam, has alleged that the cops had detained him illegally and told him to pay Rs 2.5 crore, failing which he would be killed in an encounter. Mr Islam claimed that the police officers had threatened to justify his killing by framing him with "links to Pakistani and Bangladeshi jihadi elements".
