New Delhi, Sep 16 (IANS) The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Thursday said that they have arrested a Superintendent and a Tax Clerk, both officials of the Cantonment Board, Garhi Cantt, Dehradun (Uttarakhand), for allegedly demanding a bribe of Rs 25,000, a CBI official said.
The official added that a case was registered against Shailendra Sharma, the Superintendent and Tax Clerk Raman Agarwal on a complaint alleging that they were demanding a bribe of Rs 50,000 which was reduced to Rs 25,000 from the complainant for getting his mutation file processed.
The CBI laid a trap and caught the accused red-handed while demanding and accepting the bribe of Rs 25,000 from the complainant.
In another case, the CBI has arrested a Head Constable of Delhi Police posted at Gandhinagar police station and a private person for allegedly demanding a bribe of Rs 10,000, a CBI official said.
The official added that a case was registered on a complaint against two police head constables Amit Malik and Neeraj Rana on the allegations of demanding undue bribe of Rs 20,000 for releasing the gas stove/bhatti and cylinder taken away by them from a complainant's shop located at New Delhi's Nanak Basti and also for not implicating him in a criminal case.
The CBI laid a trap and apprehended a private person Deepak while accepting the bribe of Rs 10,000 from the complainant on behest of two accused police head constables.
Later on, Amit was also arrested.
Both the accused police constables will be produced before the Delhi court.
Both -- Mandeep, alias Manna Tuffan, and Manpreet, alias Mani Rayia -- were allegedly involved in the murder of gangster Ranbir Singh, alias Rana Kandowalia. Kandowalia, who was facing dozens of cases of murder and attempt to murder, was gunned down outside a private hospital in Amritsar in August last year. The Bhagwanpuria group had taken the responsibility for the murder.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah had ordered a CBI probe into the death of Phogat. The move came after Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant recommended a CBI probe into the case as per demand of Phogat's daughter and people of Haryana.
The two-time chief minister of Punjab had fought the assembly elections in the state earlier this year in alliance with the BJP as well as Akali Dal (Sanyukt). His party - Punjab Lok Congress - though had failed to get even a single seat during the assembly elections.
During deliberations, the Chief Minister envisaged opportunities for mutual collaboration in business and solutions. He said that the alliance could provide on-field handholding to Punjab farmers in best practices of crop management.
Balkaur Singh, whose son was shot dead in daylight on May 29 close to his Moosa village in Punjab on May 28, had complained of uneasiness on Thursday night following which he was admitted to a private hospital in Patiala from where he was shifted to the PGIMER here.
Majithia told the media here that this was also necessary because the AAP government had neither made the FIR registered in this case public even after 24 hours, nor taken any action against any BJP leader or middlemen involved.
