The Guntur Range Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) officials caught red-handed Tsundur police sub-inspector Borugadda Bharat Kumar, constable Dara Kranthi Kumar and station writer Garikapati Ravindra when they were accepting a bribe of ₹45,000 from a person for granting an official favour.
The Tsundur police registered a case against hostel welfare officer Bathula Govindu, hailing from Abbarupeta in Bapatla district, and seized his four-wheeler.
SI Bharat Kumar allegedly demanded ₹75,000 from Mr. Govindu for not arresting him in the case and releasing his vehicle from the police station.
