Police Naik in ACB net for receiving

A police Naik attached to Mira Road Police station here was arrested for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 2000, ACB said today.

Naik Kiran B Boite was caught red-handed yesterday by Thane unit of ACB, while receiving the sum in the afternoon after a trap was laid at the police station, SP Datta Karale told PTI.
