Gurugram, June 20 A team of Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) in Gurugram arrested an enforcement officer of the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), and a private person red-handed for taking Rs 7 lakh as a bribe.

Sharing the details, a spokesperson of the ACB informed that a company official filed a complaint against the accused officer, Munish Narang, demanding a bribe of Rs 10 lakh in lieu of reducing the tax of the complainant's company. Later, the deal was stuck at Rs 7 lakh.
