SINGAPORE : A 57-year-old driver has been
arrested for attempting to bribe a traffic police officer.
The driver, who was caught for driving with a mobile phone
and other traffic offences on Saturday, told the police officer
that he was willing to give cash in return for the officer to look the
other way.
Police said the driver even wrote down his mobile phone number
on a piece of paper and handed it over to Sgt Mohammad Sufyan,
offering to meet the officer to pass him the money.
Immediately, Sgt Sufyan warned the driver that it was
an offence to bribe a public servant.
Undeterred, the driver made the offer again and Sgt Sufyan placed
the driver under arrest for attempting to bribe him.
The case has since been referred to the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau.
