CBI Arrests Rourkela Railway Clerk for Bribery in Odisha
The CBI caught a railway worker in Rourkela taking a bribe.
This worker, a parcel clerk, asked for money to help book goods faster.
They caught him after he accepted ₹7,200, which was a little less than the ₹8,000 he originally wanted.
This happened right after the CBI caught another person, an area manager from a coal company, and another person for taking a bribe too.
CBI arrested a parcel clerk at Rourkela railway station for accepting a bribe.
The clerk allegedly accepted ₹7,200 for booking goods on priority.
The clerk initially demanded ₹8,000 from the complainant.
A trap was set, and the clerk was caught red-handed while accepting the bribe.
This followed the arrest of an MCL sub-area manager and another person for a separate bribery case.
