- Paid INR 500
Paid a bribe of Rs.500/- for the release of my Scooty parked outside my friend's apartment where there is no "No Parking" sign. My vehicle is AP registered and the pollution and insurance have just expired. I questioned the cop with all the logic I can to explain the fee that he is quoting, asked him for a offence wise breakup etc and firmly told him that I'm ready to pay whatever fine there is in the law. Unable to explain, he started to use delaying tactics by not getting to the point directly etc., Finally, I paid the bribe of Rs.500/- he asked me willfully so that I can go home with my vehicle as it was already late in the night. The is the second time in over month I paid bribe for the same offence. I could have resisted bribing him, but at the cost of arguing with him late in the night, on the highway, in the rain and in vain. I felt, it is a waste of time and effort and therefore adopted the wrong route. I just contributed another Rs.500/- to the black economy of this country.
