Hyderabad: Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) sleuths on Thursday trapped Chevella deputy superintendant of police (DSP) K Gunasekhar while he was taking Rs 25,000 as bribe from the complainant to do an official favour.
Gunasekhar is the second top state police officer caught resorting to corrupt practices in less than a month. RC Puram SDPO P Venkataratnam was sacked for indulging in land settlements.
Based on the complaint lodged by one Rajneesh, ACB sleuths laid a trap at the 35-year-old Gunasekhar’s house at Chevella on Thursday evening and caught him red-handed while he was taking the bribe amount.
According to ACB joint director A R Srinivas, the DSP demanded the bribe for registering a case against the opposite party of the complainant in a property dispute case.
The ACB team recovered the bribe amount from the glove compartment of the officer’s car. A chemical test conducted on his hand gave positive results. The officer was arrested. He would be produced before the special court for ACB and SPE cases, Hyderabad on Friday, the JD said.
