A staffer of a university has been arrested for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 81,000 from a contractor in Maharashtra’s Raigad district, the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) said on Saturday.

Based on a complaint, the ACB laid a trap and caught Omkar Ramchandra Ambpakar (55), a finance officer at Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Technical University, while accepting the bribe amount on Friday, an official said.

The complainant, a contractor, alleged that the accused official demanded Rs 1 lakh to clear his payments of Rs 47.74 lakh for constructing a hall at the university, he said.
