CBI arrests top Delhi IAS officer for seeking bribe

The CBI today arrested a Principal Secretary in the Delhi government for allegedly demanding a bribe of Rs 2.2 lakh from the owner of a firm that supplies security guards and other manpower for clearing pending bills.
Sanjay Pratap Singh, Principal Secretary, Department of SC, ST and Minorities, and his personal assistant were arrested after the complainant approached Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's office.
They said the businessman, whose firm supplies peons, security guards and other staff for sundry works to various agencies, had accused Singh, an IAS officer of 1984 batch of AGMUT cadre, of demanding Rs 2.2 lakh as bribe for clearing bills for services rendered by the company.

CBI sleuths laid a trap after which Singh and his personal assistant were arrested.
Meanwhile, Minister of State for Home Deepak Kesarkar
has asked the Additional Chief Secretary (Home) K P Bakshi to summon Jadhav and demand an explanation from him.
"The IG's letter is a shocker for us. There is absolutely no doubt that he has broken disciplinary rules set for police officers for which he will be summoned by the ACS and an explanation will be sought," Kesarkar told
