At present, I am running a General Store at the above stated address. In the year 2005, I was running a furniture shop under the name and style of Shashwat Furnitures at Bharti Artists Colony, Preet Vihar, Delhi. On 22.10.05, at about 12.00/1.00 pm, two police men from Police Station Bhajan Pura came to my shop and told that they have come from Police Station Bhajan Pura and told that some murder has taken place in Bhajan Pura and I was asked to come at Police Station on the next day ie. 23.10.05. On the next day, I could not go to Police Station due to some urgent work at home. When I reached at my shop on the same day in the evening, it was told by my worker that a policeman had come to the shop and asked to come to Police Station, otherwise, we know to call the person in Police Station. On 24.10.05, I alongwith my relative went to Police Station, where I was made to sit in a separate room. One of the policeman who had come to my shop on 22.10.05 came to me and asked as to why I did not come on 23.10.05 and harassed me for not coming yesterday. Thereafter, I asked them to call my relatives who were standing outside the room. My relatives Sh. Vinod Kumar Verma and Sh. Surender Mittal came inside the room and they told me that they have been informed by the police that two of the persons who are involved in the murder case of Bhajan Pura, were sheltered by staying at the shop in the night. Then, I told them that key of the shop remains with me, then there is no question of sheltering them. Then I asked my relatives to settle the matter as I am annoyed by the harassment of the police. My relatives told that the police personnel are asking for one lakh rupees to settle the matter. I told my relatives that I do not have the amount of rupees one lakh. I further told that I need some time for arranging the said amount. On this, my relatives talked to the police and took time till 27.10.05 to make arrangement of said amount. I came back from the Police Station. Since, I was not inclined to pay the said amount, I contacted the CBI people in this context on 26.10.05 and narrated the entire story. After hearing my story, CBI Officials asked me to give the complaint in writing which I gave on 27.10.05. After receiving my complaint, CBI officials called two independent witnesses, name of whom, I do not recollect today, and I was introduced by the CBI Officials with these independent witnesses. Thereafter, I was asked to produce the bribe amount by the CBI Officials.
