The suspended cop, Ranjeet Kasle, claims he mentioned the names of the individuals who made the offer in a local police station diary.

The state Crime Investigation Department (CID) filed a chargesheet in the case last month. Kasle's claims come amidst ongoing investigations into the custodial death of Badlapur sexual assault case accused Akshay Shinde.
