If the police man asked for a bribe to you , and you gave that police man a bribe , then the matter is taken to court, whom will be arrested and why ?

Firstly, you do not have to pay a bribe to a policeman. If you are able to file a complaint against the policeman and if a prima facie case is made out against the policeman, then he will be arrested. In case it is established that the citizen has paid the bribe, in order to obtain an illegal favour, then the citizen will be arrested. However, anti-corruption laws vary from country to country and everything would depend on the law of the land.
