Chandigarh, June 8

A local court here has granted bail to Anil Mor and Dilbag Singh, who were arrested by the CBI for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs10 lakh from an Ambala-based businessman.

The accused had allegedly promised the businessman to dispose of a complaint pending against him at the office of Zirakpur DSP in lieu of money.

The accused were arrested in April on the complaint of Mohit Sharma, director, MS Fantasy Gaming Technology Pvt Ltd, Ambala.

In his complaint, Mohit Sharma alleged that the accused demanded a bribe of Rs50 lakh to settle a complaint filed against him regarding a property dispute at the office of Zirakpur DSP.

After registering the case against the duo under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, the CBI laid a trap and arrested the accused.

Vishal Garg Narwana, counsel for the accused, pleaded before the court that the two were falsely implicated in the case and the CBI had failed to file a chargesheet in the case within the stipulated time.
