Mumbai ACB arrests police sub-inspector and constable for taking bribe to ‘help' accused
Mumbai: The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) on Wednesday arrested sub-inspector Jayshree Londhe and constable Jayaprakash Mali posted at Vinoba Bhave Nagar police station in Kurla for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 25,000 to protect two accused booked in a case. According to ACB, last week, Londhe summoned the complainant and his friend to the police station and allegedly demanded Rs 1 lakh as bribe to prevent their names from being implicated in another offence. The complainant expressed his inability to pay such a huge amount, and after negotiations, Londhe reduced the amount to Rs 50,000. Of this, Rs 15,000 was allegedly paid immediately by the complainant's relatives. On Monday, Londhe again contacted the complainant's relatives and asked them to pay the remaining Rs 35,000.
