Udupi, Mar 2: Manjunath Naik, a second division clerk of the taluk office here, was nabbed by the Lokayukta officials on Tuesday March 1, while accepting illegal gratification from an applicant. The Lokayukta, while nabbing him, acted on a complaint filed by the aggrieved, Shivapalan.

Shivapalan, a resident of Gundibail here, had applied for converting his ten cent plot in December last. Even after three months, his file had not moved much. Two days back, when he approached Naik, with whom the file was pending, demanded a bribe of two thousand rupees, Shivapalan said in his complaint.

After Shivapalan approached the Lokayukta office here, he was asked to record his conversation with the employee in a voice recorder. As per the instructions, Shivapalan also paid Rs 2,000 to Naik on Tuesday evening. Immediately thereafter,  the Lokayukta superintendent of police, D S Jagamayyanavar, deputy superintendent of police, Prabhudev Mane, and other staff participated in the raid.
