Reported on February 12, 2015 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #40922

After a smooth process in passport office, it was time for police verification. I get a call from a police officer who asks me to get all the documents to police station and get it verified. I went there and gave hime appropriate docs. Ideally he should come to my home and verify whether I am staying there and do his verification. But he called me instead to the station. Common people usually feel insecure when they visit any police station. Taking advantage of the same, he asked me directly to give me a fees of 500 Rs. I couldn't think anything and agreed to give 500 bucks. After this i need to go to another police station, since I had changed my address once in the year. There also I showed him all the documents. This police officer was rude, after verifying he called me out of theroom and gave a dirty smile. with that hevasked me money even when all my documents were correct, as if giving money is the part of the process. I gave him 500 bucks and he shameless put the same in his pocket. Finally after days of harassment i got myself verified by paying 1000 unnecessarily. police station: Electronic city, officer name: manjunath. and 2nd police station was Mico layout
