SI arrested for taking bribe
Detective police arrested a sub-inspector (SI) with bribe money in the city on Saturday night.
SI Abu Nayeem Mohammad Sabur Khan, 35, was arrested in front of the Shyampur Police Station with Tk 5000 that he allegedly took from one AK Azad alias MA Kalam as bribe to investigate his land-related dispute case.
Azad said the hearing of his petition case was going on at Metropolitan Magistrate's Court that asked the Shyampur Police Station to investigate the matter.
"As Sabur was the investigation officer, he demanded Tk 10000 as bribe after calling me at the police station at around 9:00pm. I gave him Tk 5000 but as he demanded more, I informed the high officials of DB of the matter over telephone," Azad told the reporters, adding, "At the same time I filed an extortion case against the SI with Shyampur Police Station."
DB police came to the police station and picked up Sabur with Tk 5000. Later he was sent to jail through the court.
