The ACB on Monday said it arrested two police personnel — a deputy superintendent and an inspector — in Suryapet town for allegedly demanding a bribe from a complainant in exchange for an official favour.

Suryapet deputy superintendent and town police station inspector were arrested after they allegedly demanded a bribe of Rs 25 lakh from the complainant, which they later reduced to Rs 16 lakh at his request, the ACB had said in a release.

The alleged favour involved issuing a notice instead of arresting the complainant in a case and allowing him to run his scanning centre without interference, it had said.
