Telangana Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) has booked a case of criminal misconduct against N Sugunakar, sub-inspector and station house officer (SHO) of Naspur police station, for allegedly seeking and accepting a bribe of Rs 30,000 by PhonePe.
The bribe was said to have been realised through D Deepak, an individual.
The bribe was sought, according to ACB officials, to guarantee that the name of the complainant would not be included as an accused in an extortion case filed on January 25.
