Anti-Corruption Bureau personnel on Wednesday laid a trap and arrested Circle Inspector Narasimha Murty and head constable Paul of the II Town Police Station here for allegedly accepting ₹50,000 from a complainant.
DSP (ACB) Shakeela Bhanu told the media that a police team led by the CI raided an office belonging to one Raghava Reddy, a businessman, and took some persons into custody on charges of gambling on October 4. The CI allegedly had been demanding the businessman to pay ₹50,000 to dilute the case.
This was the second incident after the ACB trapped and arrested I Town Circle Inspector Sobhan Babu early this year.
