Jaipur: The Rajasthan anti-corruption bureau (ACB) on\nThursday arrested Public Works Department (PWD) assistant engineer (AEn) Dinesh\nPareek after he was allegedly caught taking a bribe of Rs 70,000 inside the\nstate assembly building. After arresting XEn, the ACB also held Executive\nengineer (XEn) Jitendra Dakha and cashier Abdul Kareem from the PWD headquarters\nfor being part of the bribery racket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The trio was allegedly demanding bribe from an electricity maintenance\ncontractor. The contractor had approached the accused officers to get his\npayment for the works undertaken at the state assembly building by his firm.\nThey demanded a commission for approving his bills, senior ACB officials said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The officials said that the complaint was registered against\nthe trio on July 31 by the contractor who was looking after the electricity maintenance\nwork at the assembly for the past one year. He submitted bills of Rs 7.5 lakh\nto PWD and the bills were approved. However to release the money, the trio\ndemanded a 10% commission. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the ACB verified the complaint, the contractor negotiated\nwith the PWD officials. They eventually agreed to accept a 9% commission. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dinesh Pareek asked the contractor to come to the state\nassembly building because it was a \u2018safe place\u2019 to get the bribe. The people\nhave to take permission at the main gate before entering the assembly building.\nBut in order to organize the trap, the ACB had obtained permission in advance\nand when the contractor was handing over the bribe money, the trap officials\ncaught Dinesh and arrested him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He and XEn Jitendra Dakha and cashier Abdul Kareem were\nbooked under various sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
