Bhubaneswar witnessed another major anti-corruption raid today.
Odisha Vigilance arrested a female officer.
The vigilance team nabbed Manisha Mishra on Friday.
She works as a probationary Sub-Registrar in Baleshwar.
Her office operates inside the Baliapal area.
Mishra demanded illegal money from a local land buyer.
The buyer wanted to register a land sale deed.
That property plot spans zero point fourteen acres.
Official department guidelines classify this specific land as Stithiban.
Eligible owners can register such land parcels easily.
However, the accused officer ignored all government rules.
She demanded ten thousand rupees as a bribe initially.
The distressed buyer expressed complete financial inability.
Mishra then lowered her illegal demand to seven thousand.
The frustrated citizen finally approached anti-corruption authorities directly.
State vigilance officials planned a secret trap immediately.
The team caught the officer red-handed accepting money.
Investigators recovered the tainted cash from her possession.
Authorities seized the entire bribe amount as primary evidence.
Simultaneous search operations began at her residential properties.
Officers inspected two separate locations linked to Mishra today.
Investigators suspect she amassed disproportionate assets during service.

She served as a probationary officer in Baliapal.
Police registered a formal criminal case against her.
Baleshwar Vigilance Police Station filed case number twenty-six.
Charges fall under Section seven of corruption laws.
The Prevention of Corruption Amendment Act applies here.
Further legal investigations continue into her financial assets.
State authorities promised strict action against corrupt officials.
