Evidence

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 14 September 2011 This query is : Resolved 
In a Departmental Inquiry, an employee "E" is charged with corruption allegedly acting in favour of a particular person "P". The only evidence produced against E is withdrawal of heavy amount by P from his account during the relevant period.
Kindly determine the sterngth of the said evidence in appropriate standard of proof.

mere cash withdrawal is not sufficent to implicate E . cash may have been withdrawn for any purpose by P

This is very very weak evidence brought against the delinquent employee and there is full hope of his exoneration of this otherwise unsusainable charge.

As seen from the query I understand that heavy amount was withdrawn by 'P' from his account (may be P's General Provident Fund account) and 'E' has acted in favour of 'P.

'E' might have favoured 'P' but if the sanctioning authority sanctioned the amount for withdrawn, no motives can be attributed to the 'E'. Hence, the charge leveled against 'E' may nay be sufficient to prove the charge of corruption.
