Following a complaint, the ACB verified the allegations and laid a trap at Hotel Gangaur in Jaipur. The accused were caught redhanded while accepting ₹40,000 as part of the demanded bribe amount. The operation was led by ACB Additional Superintendent of Police Bhupendra Chaudhary under the supervision of Deputy-Inspector General of Police Om Prakash Meena.
The action was carried out on the directions of Director-General Govind Gupta and Additional Director-General Smita Srivastava. The ACB has taken the accused into custody.
