Said no to police who asked for bribe

Reported on July 2, 2014 from Guwahati , Assam  ι Report #41783

I had to get my passport verified by the police officials. After signing all the required documents, the police politely asked me in Hindi, "Thoda chai-paani". Not well versed with the police lingo, I didn't get the meaning of it. I gave him a confused look, so he then indicated it to me using the rub-the-fingers move. I understood his motive. I told him that i won't pay him anything as I'm just a student and he should not be expecting anything from me. He was like it okay, I'll do your work.

Not it's been almost 8 days since my police verification and the Passport Seva website still shows that my passport application is waiting to be verified by the local police station.

What is your reaction after reading this report?
