Bihar IPS Amit Lodha, who inspired web series 'Khakee', charged with corruption, suspended

New Delhi: Amit Lodha, Bihar IPS officer who gained notoriety after the web series "Khakee: The Bihar Chapter" was published, was suspended after a case was filed against him on suspicion of corruption and for allegedly entering into a business deal with Netflix while holding a government position. An official statement claims that Lodha signed a contract with the streaming service for the purpose of negotiating a deal with the production company Friday Storytellers while he was still an IPS officer. This is considered to be using his position for financial gain. The department's investigation revealed that the allegations of Lodha's corruption were true, and the Special Vigilance Unit filed a case on December 7 under sections 120B and 168 of the IPC as well as sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act, or PC Act, as a result. A level of a police officer known as the Deputy Superintendent of Police will conduct further investigation into the situation.

The epic struggle between two men on opposing sides of the law—a feared gang leader and a fiercely honourable Indian Police Service officer named Amit Lodha—is the subject of the television series "Khakee: The Bihar Chapter." A crime drama tracing the world of crime based on actual events is called "Khakee: The Bihar Chapter."
