A case in this regard was registered at Kankanady Police Station in the city following which he was arrested on Monday.
According to the reports, Vivek was lobbying for himself for the post of VC as he believed he was the able contender for the post at the Mangalore University where he was posted as Chemistry Professor. Taking advantage of the situation, Prasad approached him and claimed that he can elevate him as the VC of the university using his connection with the Chief Minister.
Prasad reportedly sought 15 lakh rupees as a bribe and additional 2.5 lakh rupees for miscellaneous expenses from Vivek.

Brothers awaiting board exam results drown in canal
Erode (Tamil Nadu) (PTI): Minor brothers who were awaiting their board exam results have drowned in a canal in this district while spending their Summer holidays at their aunt's place, police said.
According to Arachalure Police, Santhosh, aged 17, and his younger brother Sanjai, aged 15, natives of Musiri village in Tiruchirapalli district, came to Gopaliparai hamlet near Arachalure to their Aunt's house a couple of days ago after writing their annual 12th and 10th examinations, respectively.
The police said on Friday that both boys went to the nearby Lower Bhavani Project canal to take a bath. It was alleged that while taking a bath, both boys went to a deeper area of the canal and went missing.
As they didn't return home, even two hours after they left, their aunt grew suspicious and informed the Fire and Rescue Services, Chennimalai. A rescue team from the department rushed to the spot. After a few minutes of searching, they located the dead bodies of the brothers and sent them to the hospital. Arachalure police registered a case of death due to drowning and are investigating.
