Money for filing FIR

Reported on September 26, 2010 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #30617

I had lost my NSC and had to submit an FIR to the GPO for issuing a duplicate. I was in for a shock when the police officer at the Whitefield Police Station refused to register my complaint. He told me that since I have lost the certificate more than 48 hours ago, I have to go in front of a magistrate and declare that I am speaking the truth. He then "offered" me an alternative by saying that he will do the job only if I pay him some amount. Since I did not have any change at all in my wallet, I had to dish out a Rs. 100 note as payment for a simple service as filing of an *******
