New Delhi, Aug. 26 -- The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today said it has arrested an Assistant Commissioner, Food Safety, (J&K) while he was demanding and accepting a bribe of Rs.10,000 from a man to let him run a restaurant without any objection.

A senior CBI official said the case was lodged against the accused assistant commissioner, Sanjeev Bali, yesterday.

The accused allegedly demanded a bribe of Rs. 10,000 from the man to refrain from collecting samples from his shop and to grant an exemption from inspections for a year so that he could run his business without any problem.

The CBI laid a trap and caught the accused red-handed while demanding and accepting the bribe.
