Jammu 01 June, 2026: A written complaint was received by ACB alleging that the accused demanded a bribe of ₹20,000 from the complainant for expediting the release of security deposits related to allotted works. After negotiations, the accused allegedly agreed to accept ₹15,000 as illegal gratification.

Unwilling to pay the bribe, the complainant approached the Anti-Corruption Bureau seeking legal action against the accused official.

Upon receipt of the complaint, ACB conducted a discreet verification which established the prima facie demand of bribe by the accused public servant. Consequently, FIR No. 07/2026 under Section 7 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 was registered at Police Station ACB Central, Jammu, and investigation was initiated.

During investigation, a trap team was constituted by ACB.
