ACB Arrests Hyderabad Police Inspector and Home Guard for Bribery Case
The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) in Hyderabad arrested a police inspector from Mirchowk Police Station and a home guard for allegedly demanding a Rs 6 lakh bribe and accepting Rs 3 lakh as part payment. The bribe was sought to close a case against the complainant's father, avoid coercive action, and provide future support. The amount was recovered from the home guard, and both accused are under investigation and judicial remand. The ACB has urged the public to report bribery demands via its toll-free number.
