How is that A1 is accused as well a witness?

As per UR query only A2 and Z were trapped by the ACB,and A1 has not come into the picture directly.Hence the chargesheet must have been filed against A2 and Z.The point here is who has taken the bribe directly and not the person for whom they have taken.So A1 is an accused only according to U and not the ACB.Quite wisely he must have escaped the wrath of the ACB and became a prime Witness.

Full case file has to be referred, consult some senior lawyer and show him full case file.
