A former deputy
superintendent of police was today sentenced to two years of rigorous imprisonment for accepting a bribe of Rs 20,000 from a constable for an official favour while in service 12 years ago.
Karimnagar Anti-Corruption Bureau Court Special Judge Prema Bhasker Rao also ordered M William to pay a fine of
Rs 10,000.
According to prosecution, William, working as the DSP at Nizamabad in 2006, had demanded bribe from constable
T Srinivas, against whom his estranged wife had filed a harassment case, to water down the charges.
The constable informed the ACB officials who set up a trap and arrested William while accepting the bribe at his residence here on August 11, 2006.
