Overview
- ACB officers in Huzurabad arrested assistant engineer Nusum Sudhakar Reddy on Wednesday after he accepted Rs 50,000 at the RTC Depot Chowrastha.
- Investigators say he sought the payment to record Measurement Book entries and clear the final bill for a storm-water drain job.
- After a contractor reported the demand, ACB officers set up a trap and recovered the marked cash on arrest.
- Officials withheld the complainant’s identity for security reasons.
- The Measurement Book logs work done on public projects, so control over these entries can delay payments and create chances for bribe demands.
