Man booked for harassment on Whatsapp group

NAGPUR: A 24-year-old man, identified as

Hemant Kumar Saini

, was arrested from Rajasthan by

Sakkardara

police on Wednesday for allegedly harassing various authorities of private colleges offering courses on fire and safety.

Sushant Kumar Meshram, heading one such city-based institution offering course on fire and safety, was being harassed by Saini before making a demand of Rs 15 lakhs for discontinuing the nuisance of defaming his college.
