Perform duty with honesty, says SP

On March 30, the Vigilance Bureau had arrested Sub-Inspector Rishi Pal, who was posted at the Saha police station, under corruption charges.

As per information, he had sought a bribe in connection with a case registered under various sections, including attempt to murder, voluntarily causing hurt, rioting and criminal intimidation, at the Saha police station last year.

The complainant had informed the Bureau that Rishi Pal had allegedly sought a bribe of Rs50,000. Of this, a sum of Rs20,000 was to be given in advance. The bribe was allegedly sought for not conducting a raid and delaying the arrest in the case.

Another case was registered against him under corruption charges in 2019. With two corruption cases, the image of the department has been tarnished. To maintain the faith of people in the Police Department, Rishi Pal has been dismissed.”
