New Delhi, April 7 -- A Special CBI court in Jaipur has awarded five years of rigorous imprisonment to a former Chief Office Superintendent of WCR in connection with a bribery case.

The court sentenced the accused Jalandhar Yogi, who was posted at Sawai Madhopur, Rajasthan, and also imposed a fine of Rs 25,000 for committing the offence.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) registered the case in 2020. It was alleged that the accused demanded a bribe of Rs 11,500 for clearing a pending final bill related to work carried out by the complainant.

The CBI laid a trap and caught the accused red-handed while accepting Rs 10,000 as a bribe. The amount was recovered from his possession.
