{{Jean Baptist Nzabonimana 26, a resident of Nyagasozi cell, Zaza Sector in Ngoma District has been arrested for allegedly attempting to bribe a police officer in order to bail his motorcycle released. He is currently detained at Kibungo Police Station.}}<\/p>\n

Nzabonimana\u2019s motorcycle, registration number RB 704I, had been seized after he was found with no driving licence and other related documents required.<\/p>\n

The suspect, who had earlier argued that he had all the required documents, when he was stopped as he was transporting a passenger, had been told to fetch those particulars before taking his motorcycle.<\/p>\n

This prompted him to use other illegal means of bribing the police officer with Rwf20, 000, to seduce him release his motorcycle.<\/p>\n

His wrong move, however, turned sour when the brave officer informed his colleagues and they arrested him in the act.<\/p>\n

Ngoma District Police Commander, Superintendent (SP) Victor Rubamba advised the public to avoid risky moves and acquire driving documents.<\/p>\n

\u201cBribery or corruption comes with heavy consequences, and the public should beware of that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The Eastern Province Police Spokesperson, Senior Superintendent (SSP) Beniot Nsengiyumva praised the bravery of the officer to ignore such illegal attempts to execute his duties as mandated.<\/p>\n

SSP Nsengiyumva appealed to the public to strengthen their partnership with concerned authorities and \u201ccontinue the slogan of saying no to corruption.<\/p>\n

Nzabonimana will be charged under Article 641 of the penal code, which states that \u201cany person who explicitly or implicitly offers, proposes directly or indirectly a gift or any other illegal benefit, to a person in charge of a service, mission or mandate or who promises it in order to render a service or to refrain from carrying out any usual duties, shall be liable to a term of imprisonment of more than five years to seven years and a fine of twice to ten times the value of the illegal benefit he\/she offered or promised.<\/p>\n
