The sleuths of Anti Corruption Bureau (ACB) have caught an official and staff of the Department of Treasury in connection with a bribery case in Hubballi. The ACB sleuths have given the names of the arrested as Assistant Director of Department of Treasury (Treasury Office) Prakash S. Halapet and First Division Assistant Abhilash Alur. The arrests were made on Tuesday based on a complaint by retired Assistant Sub-Inspector of Police Mallanna Desai. Mr. Mallanna Desai had approached the accused several times with regard to the delay in sanctioning his pension benefits and each time, he was sent back citing different reasons. Subsequently, the two had sought a bribe of ₹10,000 for sanctioning the pension benefits and ultimately agreed for ₹3,000.
