Its just pure business sense for the cop. (Remember they never joined the police to help people in the first place). He is in the business of extracting bribes. Simple!

I am glad that you took a stand. One should be aware of their rights and should sticck with the princinples, be confident and not budge under pressure. Its not matter of few bucks. It a matter of principle. Do not forget you paid for that cop's salary!
the big pain is for the outstation guys who dont know the language.

and more over when a cop says he will cease the bike it is a shocker. and we just try and get the hell out of there by paying what ever it is we have to.
Will have to start standing up to them cops from now on i guess. this is happening way too often and to way too many people.
