The ACB said a truck driver had parked his truck near Batamaloo, Srinagar, and a SI, identified as Farooq Ahmad Abassi, asked him to produce documents of the vehicle.

“The complainant showed the relevant documents, but the said SI instead demanded a bribe of Rs 3,000 to return the documents.

Meanwhile, the complainant approached the ACB, Srinagar, and a case was registered. A trap was laid near Batamaloo and the SI was arrested while receiving the bribe,” the ACB spokesman said.
