A special corporal from the St Andrew South Division was yesterday arrested by members of the Anti Corruption Branch (ACB) on reasonable suspicion of breaching the Corruption Prevention Act.
Allegations are that yesterday morning, a joint police/military task force carried out an operation in the Kingston 11 area and took four men into custody. The men, who are all related, were being processed.
Later that day, one of the policemen allegedly contacted family members and demanded a sum of $10,000 to release the men.
A report was made to the ACB, after which a sting operation was set up. The policeman was held after he collected the money.
He is now in custody and a case file is being prepared for submission to the Director of Public Prosecutions for a ruling.
