SINGAPORE : A 24-year-old male cyclist who attempted to bribe two traffic police officers Wednesday found out the hard way that police integrity could not be bought.
Sergeant Nazir Jaffar and Sergeant Mohammed Fadzly spotted a cyclist riding on the footway at Geylang Road before the junction of Sims Way and directed him to stop.
However, he refused to do so and tried to escape.
The officers chased the cyclist on foot and managed to stop him at Geylang Lorong 4.
When they told the cyclist that he would be booked for cycling along the footway of a public road, the man offered two $10-dollar notes to the officers in return for letting him off.
The officers rejected offer and arrested the cyclist for trying to bribe them.
The case has since been referred to the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB).
