The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Monday nabbed a Senior Divisional Mechanical Engineer (DME) of Central Railway for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 10,000 to clear bills of a contractor at his office, officials said.

The complainant supplies vehicles to the Central Railway on rent. His vehicles were deployed at Nagpur railway station and the Divisional Railway Manager's office.
