A doctor working at a government rural hospital in the neighbouring Palghar district was today arrested by the Thane ACB for taking a bribe.
He was identified as Dr Manoj Baburao Bansode (49), medical officer of rural hospital at Virar.
He had allegedly demanded Rs 14,000 from a junior officer to release his salary and to exempt him from certain duty.
After the junior officer approached ACB, a trap was laid and Bansode was caught red-handed and arrested under Prevention of Corruption Act.
