Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC) officials on Thursday arrested Village Administrative Officer (VAO) of Mavathur on graft charges.
According to sources, P. Kumarapandian (42), the VAO, had allegedly demanded ₹17,000 from C. Ilayaraja of Muthahagoundanpatti for a title name change in land records. But he refused to pay the bribe and subsequently lodged a complaint with the DVAC office. The DVAC officials arrested Kumarapandian when he received the bribe money from Ilayaraja.
