Hyderabad: The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) recently caught Bhoopala Mahesh, a revenue inspector in the Musheerabad mandal. He was found accepting a Rs 25,000 bribe to issue a family member’s certificate. This document is crucial for many official tasks. Initially, Mahesh asked for Rs 1 lakh. After a complaint, ACB set a trap and captured him with part of the bribe.
Investigations continue. In a separate incident, ACB arrested another revenue inspector, G Krishna, from the Ibrahimpatnam mandal in Ranga Reddy district. He allegedly demanded Rs 12 lakh to adjust a property record in Adibatla village. The bribe was to ensure the file progressed smoothly through the RDO office and to influence higher officials.
ACB urges citizens to reject bribery. For complaints, contact the toll-free number 1064. They are also available via their website, WhatsApp (9440446106), Facebook (Telangana ACB), and X (@TelanganaACB).
