Fifty -year -old Tangedco leader in Virinchipuram near Katado in Vellore was arrested by Sleuths of the Directorate for Vagueness and Anticorption (twenty) for his claim and accepting a bribe of 3,000 R for providing a new connection of electricity.
Twenty sources said the complainant V. Echhappan (67), the driver and his family lived in Vellore. He recently built a house in Virinchipuram. He decided to get a new domestic power connection with his house.
In accordance with this, he paid a deposit and other fees for 27,000 RS TANGEDCO through online payment. Subsequently, Echhappan visited the Tangedco office in the village with admission and asked for S.

Echhappan told twenty officials that Kirubhakaran reportedly demanded an amount of 3,000 RS for this purpose. Echhappan did not want to pay a bribe and filed a complaint for twenty.
The seven -member team led by K. Sankare, a representative of SP, twenty (Vellore) and Inspector S. Mythili laid a trap and caught the leader Tangedco Kirubakaran. A case was registered against him. Later he was arrested and stored in the central prison in Vellore.
