The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) arrested two individuals, identified as Shilpa and Vijay Ahir, in Ahmedabad for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 3.15 lakh. 

The incident followed a citizen's complaint alleging that the accused demanded the funds to prevent the demolition of an unauthorized permanent roof on a house and shop. While Shilpa allegedly requested Rs 3.25 lakh—with Rs 3 lakh intended for municipal officials—the ACB recovered the remaining Rs 3.15 lakh during a trap operation near Soni Ni Chali Char Rasta.
