Lorry driver held for trying to bribe cop

Police have apprehended a lorry driver for trying to bribe a traffic policeman at a roadblock near Batu Kawah on Tuesday.

The driver, a 33-year-old man from Taman Mei Mei Stakan, was ferrying diesel when he was stopped at the roadblock.

The policeman checked his permit and found that it had expired on Nov 28, 2008.

The driver tried to buy his way out by offering RM100 to the policeman, who insisted on issuing a summons.

It is believed that the driver kept asking the policeman to keep the money and let him go and this led to his detention.

The driver will be referred to the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Commi–ssion for further action.
