Police ministerial staff held on graft charges

By Our Staff Reporter

COIMBATORE, JAN. 25. Special teams of the Directorate of Vigilance & Anti-Corruption (V&AC), Chennai, raided the office of the Superintendent of Police, Coimbatore Rural District this morning and arrested a ministerial staff on graft charges. According to DV & AC sleuths, Sunil Kumar is said to have demanded Rs. 200 from an applicant for issuing a no-objection certificate for re-registration of a vehicle.

Following a complaint from the applicant, Sunil Kumar was arrested. He was remanded to judicial custody.

Activists removed

As many as 48 Adi-Tamizhar Peravai activists including 25 women and six children were removed by the police, when they attempted to stage a demonstration demanding immediate compensation to the families of three persons who died of asphyxiation.

It may be recalled that the workers who ventured into a corporation tanker lorry died of asphyxiation recently at the Ukkadam sewerage farm. The police removed the agitators when they were about to squat on the road in the busy Ukkadam area.
