 Bribery? U have no evidence?

AEJAZ AHMED (Legal Consultant/Lawyer)     21 January 2010

Dear Jignesh,

Giving a bribe is as much an offence as taking it. If a complainant goes to the ACB and given prima-facie evidence of giving of illegal gratification (bribe) and of receiving that illegal gratification, then the ACB will have to register the case and investigate it and bring it to its logical and legal conclusion. Offering a bribe would be an offence under Section 7 and 12 of Prevention of Corruption Act.  
 
 
Amongst the few reported cases are Yusuf Ali Nagri Vs. State of Maharashtra AIR 1968 SC147 In this case the Municipal Inspector was offered a bribe. He complained to the ACB. The ACB officers taped the conversations from an adjacent room. IT was only an offer The accused was arrested an convicted the SC acceptiong the tape recorded conversations valid evidence convicted the accused for offering the bribe. punishes for receiving or accepting illegal gratification.

I do agree with Mr Ahmed

The complaint should have been made to Anti Corruption Bureau just after the demand.

 

As there is no proof for his accepatance of bribe, nothing can be done now. If there was some proof a complaint to higher authorities of the department would have initiated a departmental enquiry.
