ASP Bribery Commission Investigation Division Somaweera Lokuge told Daily Mirror the PC who had caught an illicit liquor manufacturer with 30 Kasippu bottles had demanded Rs.30, 000 from him with the promise he would not be arrested. The illicit liquor manufacturer had however pleaded with him to reduce the amount to Rs.10, 000 and the PC had agreed to that. He was then asked to come to the Marawila town with the money. The liquor manufacturer had however reported the incident to the Bribery Commission and the constable was arrested while receiving the money yesterday morning. He was produced before Marawila Magistrate and remanded until April 7.
