Cop caught taking bribe
Mumbai: Sub-inspector Damodar Pawar attached to the Goregaon police station
was caught red handed by the ACB while accepting a bribe of Rs 3,500 from a
businessman on Saturday. Pawar became the 15th policeman to be trapped by
the ACB this year. He will be produced before the special holiday court on
Saturday.
According to the ACB, the complainant Sanjay Gaikwad had a civil dispute
with his neighbours at Jawahar Nagar in Goregaon. Gaikwad’s opponents had
filed a complaint with the Goregaon police station. Though it was a civil
dispute, Pawar intervened and brought a settlement between the two. After
the settlement, Pawar demanded money. Gaikwad refused to pay and approached
the ACB. TNN
