CBI files chargesheet in Rs 2 crore bribery case

Mumbai: Almost ten months after the arrest of Chief Post-Master General of Maharashtra and Goa, Manjit Singh Bali for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs two crore, the CBI today filed its  chargesheet in the case.

Bali and two others - Arun Dalmia and Harsh Dalmia - have been accused of accepting bribe for allegedly issuing a 'No Objection Certificate' (NOC) for the development of a land reserved for postal department at Mira Road in neighbouring Thane district in Maharashtra.

"The trio have been charged for conspiracy and various sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act. This was one of the biggest traps in the last year involving an additional
secretary level officer," CBI Superintendent of Police Abhin Modak said.

Bali and the other accused were arrested on February 24 and were released on bail in March.
According to CBI, Bali was to get Rs 1.25 crore while Arun and Harsh were to get the remaining bribe amount.
