The ACB received a written complaint alleging therein that Tehsildar and Naib-Tehsildar of Tehsil Office Shalteng are demanding Rs. 5 lakh as bribe for allowing the complaints to run their business on Nazool land transferred in their favour under Roshni Act at Rampur, Chattabal Srinagar, while the matter is sub-judice and pending disposal before the court of law.
The complainants pleaded for justice and both the revenue officers demanded bribe of Rs. 5 lakhs for allowing them to run their business on the said land. The amount of bribe was settled to be paid in instalments. As first instalment, the complainants were asked to pay Rs. 2 lakhs. However, before paying the bribe amount to the accused persons, the complainants approached the ACB for taking legal action against the accused public servants under law.
On receipt of the complaint FIR 29/2022 U/S 7 PC Act 1988 r/w 120-B IPC was registered in this bureau and investigation was taken up. During the course of investigation a trap team constituted. The team laid a successful trap and caught red-handed Naib Tehsildar, Shalteng while demanding and accepting the bribe amount of Rs. 2 lakh from the complainant as first instalment of Rs. 5 lakh.
The bribe money was recovered from the possession of the accused in presence of independent witness. Tehsildar Shalteng was also arrested by the ACB team.
