Two police officers who allegedly took money from a man to forego his arrest are expected to appear before a Princes Town Magistrate on Friday.
Police Constables Ramesh Ramlokhan and Davenand Bissoon were charged last week and appeared before Port-of-Spain Magistrate Alexander Prince on Friday.
They were granted bail totally $50,000 and $100,000 bail respectively and their matters were transferred to the Princes Town Magistrates' Court.
Both officers were charged with corruptly soliciting and receiving $1,200 from a Barrackpore man at his home on July 16.
Bissoon was slapped with a second offence of allegedly receiving another $1,200 bribe from the man on August 2.
It is alleged that the police officers went to the man's Barrackpore home to arrest him on a warrant but took the money to forego his arrest.
Bissoon who has six years service and Ramlokhan who has 13 years service were subsequently arrested and charged by Cpl Joefield of the Professional Standard Bureau.
They were last attached to the Barrackpore Police Station.
