Former SE of UT Electricity dept held guilty in graft case

According to the complaint filed by Subhash Bajaj,managing director of the Kanta Electricals India Limited,Mohali,Dhingra had asked him to come with the money to his residence in Sector 19. Bajaj alleged the SE had demanded the money to facilitate approval of the contract,even though a government laboratory had approved the equipment of his company.

He had reportedly told the CBI officials that on August 1,Dhingra asked him for monetary favours to sort out the matter. He further told the CBI that the money was asked to be paid at the SE’s residence the next day. Acting on the complaint,the CBI then laid a trap to nab Dhingra. The official was reportedly caught red-handed on August 2,2006. The CBI also carried a raid at his residence after he was nabbed. The quantum of sentence will be pronounced tomorrow.
