Paid bribe to get back Two wheeler which got towed

Reported on January 11, 2018 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #175920

My two wheeler got towed near Marathahalli, Bangalore. When I went to ground behind VIMS hospital, Marathahalli to get it back, no traffic police was there, only towing people were there. I said I will pay the fine, get the receipt and take the vehicle. They said in that case, go to station tomorrow and get it, if you want it NOW pay 500 Rs as bribe, and take it.

I didn't want to waste my time on roaming around the stations for this issue, so I had to pay the bribe.

As the official towing charges are 750, almost everybody (I have seen around 10 members) was paying 500 as bribe and taking bike.
