Noida: One inspector, three journalists arrested for taking bribe

In a major operation, a police inspector and three journalists were arrested in Noida on charges of bribery and extortion, officials said today. "Manoj Kumar Pant, SHO of Sector 20 police station, and journalists Sushil Pandit, Udit Goyal and Raman Thakur were arrested yesterday," Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Vaibhav Krishna said. He said the four were caught red-handed while taking bribe.

Information
They were extorting money from a call center owner

Krishna said they were caught while accepting extortion money of Rs. 8 lakh at the Sector 20 police station. "They were extorting money from a call center owner in the name of removing the latter's name from an FIR registered in November 2018," he added.

Recovery
.32 bore pistol was seized from one of the journalists

A Mercedes car has also been seized from the possession of one of the journalists, which the SSP said, prima facie seemed to be related to some "criminal activity." A .32 bore pistol was seized from the possession of another journalist, Krishna said. Meanwhile, Additional SHO of Sector 20 police station, Jaiveer Singh, has been suspended for his alleged involvement in the case.
