Jaipur, May 5 (PTI) The Rajasthan Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) on Tuesday arrested a police assistant sub-inspector and a middleman in Dungarpur district for allegedly accepting bribe of Rs 1 lakh, officials said.
The accused were identified as Madanlal, an ASI posted at Cyber police station, and Dayalal Patidar, a former councillor who acted as a middleman.
Director General of Police (ACB) Govind Gupta said the action was taken following a complaint that the ASI had threatened the complainant with arrest in a fraud case involving the complainant’s daughter and son-in-law, and demanded the bribe to remove their names from the case.
After verification of the complaint, the ACB laid a trap and caught Patidar red-handed while accepting Rs 1 lakh on behalf of the ASI, the DGP said, adding Madanlal was also arrested in connection with the case. PTI SDA KVK KVK
