Cop suspended for taking bribe in UP's Sambhal

A police outpost incharge in Uttar Pradesh's Sambhal district was suspended on Thursday for taking a bribe, an official said on Thursday.

A video of Bairpur police outpost incharge Sultan Singh taking the bribe had also gone viral on social media, prompting SP Yamuna Prasad to order a probe by Circle Officer of the area.

The action was taken against Singh after the charges against him were found true, the SP said.
