Tamil Nadu cops get bribe via Google Pay, transferred

ERODE: A special sub-inspector and a head constable were transferred to armed reserve on Sunday after receiving bribe through Google Pay.
The SSI, Vadivel, 50, and constable Chandramohan, 46, who were on duty at the Asanur checkpost near Karnataka border on July 2, found two people carrying liquor bottles bought in Karnataka in their car. “Instead of seizing the bottles, the duo let the car pass through the checkpost after receiving bribe through Google Pay,” said a police officer.
The district superintendent of police V Sasimohan came to know about the incident and ordered a departmental inquiry.
“The inquiry confirmed the incident. Besides, the duo had confessed to their crime,” the officer said.
