According to officials, the accused, identified as Hiren Jayantibhai Patel (33), currently posted as a constable at Kheda-Nadiad LCB and residing at Nadiad Rural Police Line, had demanded the bribe from a complainant to avoid registering a false case of country liquor against him and his family members.
