Passport office took bribe indirectly

Reported on March 19, 2011 from Bareilly , Uttar Pradesh  ι Report #25761

My passport was awaiting since last five months, I contacted passport office, they asked me to come and **********. I reached there and Passport officer said that there is problem in my documents and he can't issue passport. He said that you need to re-apply now. I came out and was just leaving the place, a person came to me and asked if I want passport. I told him my problem. He said that give me 5000 rs and you will get it issued today evening. I didn't believed him at first then he told me he was doing this since years. I wanted my passport to be done coz in case of reapplying I need to pay again to police inquiry and all, so I gave him 5000 and for my surprise, my passport was issued by passport office in the evening.
