An official spokesperson of the Vigilance Bureau said that ASI Angrej Singh was nabbed based on the complaint of Balwinder Singh Sandhu, a resident of Kamra Patti in village Jaito.
In his complaint, Sandhu said that a conflict had arisen between him and another party. With the mediation of village panchayat, a compromise was signed between the two.
He complained that the ASI was demanding Rs 40,000 as bribe in lieu of issuance of a compromise letter to him.
Acting on the tip-off, a trap was laid and Angrej Singh was nabbed red-handed while accepting the bribe of Rs 30,000.
