Kolhapur: A police officer attached to the Hupri police station in Kolhapur was caught red-handed accepting a bribe of ₹9,000 on Tuesday, for not arresting a woman and her son in an assault case registered against them by their neighbours.

The accused, Dilip Yosef Tiwade, 52, had demanded the bribe from a woman in order to not arrest her and her son in a case of assault on neighbours. The woman had filed a complaint against her neighbor after their dogs had bitten each other.

The woman approached the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) after Tiwade demanded the bribe. The ACB laid a trap and caught Tiwade red-handed accepting the bribe.

Superintendent of Police Amol Tambe has appealed to all citizens of Kolhapur to contact the ACB if any government official or employee demands a bribe.
