New Delhi, May 18 (SocialNews.XYZ) A former sub-inspector in the Railway Protection Force (RPF) was awarded three years' rigorous jail term by a special CBI court in Visakhapatnam.
The Special Judge, CBI Cases, Visakhapatnam, sentenced Kondaveeti Mani Prasad, the then RPF sub-inspector, South Central Railway, Guntur Division to undergo three years' rigorous imprisonment and also slapped a fine of Rs 20,000 on him for taking a bribe.
The CBI had registered a case against the accused on the allegation of bribery.
