The Khunti police station witnessed an unprecedented incident when ACB agents detained Sub‑Inspector Spana Sulekha for allegedly demanding a bribe of ₹4.5 million to erase a case against a local resident. The alleged bribery scheme came to light after Shyam Kumar lodged a complaint with the anti‑corruption agency. On the scheduled day, Kumar presented ₹50,000 as the first installment. The moment the officer took the money, a pre‑positioned ACB squad swooped in, placed her under arrest, and secured the cash as evidence. The bold operation sparked immediate concern among the staff present.
