Fatehgarh Sahib, November 21
The Mandi Gobindgarh Police have registered a case against Rajiv Verma, husband of a local councillor, under Section 7A of the Prevention of Corruption Act on the complaint of Tarandeep Singh, a resident of Dalip Nagar area. An inquiry was conducted by the Vigilance Department while further investigation has been marked to the Amloh DSP.
Tarandeep Singh alleged a year ago, a police case related to a quarrel was registered against him at the Mandi Gobindgarh police station but he obtained anticipatory bail from the High Court. He claimed on September 13, 2020, he, along with Rajiv Verma and three others, went to the police station to join the investigation. He alleged the then SHO took him to a room. In the meantime, Rajiv Verma came to him and demanded Rs 40,000 for his release.
He said he arranged the amount, gave it to Verma and was released. He claimed he came to know from then SHO and police personnel that they neither demanded nor received any money from Verma. Sukhwinder Singh, DSP, said it was an old case and on the inquiry report of the Vigilance, a case had been registered. No arrests had been made yet. — OC
