  "account": "A Sub-Inspector at the Keesara police station was apprehended by the Anti-Corruption Bureau on Monday for allegedly demanding and accepting a ₹2,000 bribe from a complainant. The accused, Kondareddy Srinivas, was caught in the act by ACB officials from City Range-2 while receiving the money on November 9. The complainant was an accused in two cases registered at the Keesara police station. Srinivas had allegedly demanded the bribe to expedite the investigation and file charge sheets in the cases. The ACB recovered the full amount from the officer. Srinivas abused his official position and acted dishonestly, the bureau stated. He was arrested and remanded to judicial custody by a Special Judge. Further investigation is ongoing, and the ACB has urged citizens to report any instances of bribery to its toll-free number 1064 or via WhatsApp at 9440446106. The complainants' identities will remain confidential.",
