Raghu, a resident of Haruvanahalli village in Haruvanahalli Panchayat had submitted an application to alienate his 2 gunta land. While Ravi had initially agreed to alienate the land, during Raghu’s second visit, Ravi demanded Rs 3,500 for doing the work. Raghu instantly lodged a complaint with Lokayukta.
When Raghu came to the office to give the bribe, Ravi said that he would take the money in a nearby hotel and not in the office. Likewise, Raghu went to the hotel and when Ravi came to collect the money, Lokayukta police nabbed him.
