The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has arrested a Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) official and a Reliance-linked executive in connection with a bribery case involving drone imports.

India's CBI arrested a senior DGCA official and a private company representative for allegedly accepting a bribe of Rs 2.5 lakhs, with searches yielding Rs 37 lakh cash, gold, and silver.

Rohit Pawar has submitted a statement to the CID, alleging that powerful individuals are protecting DGCA officials and VSR in an undisclosed matter.
