initially the informant had gone alone when his warrant was cancelled by the competent Court and to tender the cancellation letter to the Police Station at that time, the Police Officer Aliyar Khan had asked him to meet the accused and, therefore, the complainant had met the accused at one garage near Jafar Lawns. According to the complainant, the accused had demanded amount from him. It was amount of Rs.5,000/- and the complainant was not liable to pay any amount to the accused. Therefore, that amount which was demanded from the complainant was illegal gratification. Complainant had no intention to give the bribe amount and, therefore, he lodged the complaint. The verification of the demand has been done by sending the complainant and PW 2 Vishal. It was recorded and then the trap was conducted. The tainted amount was found from the pocket of the pant of the accused. The accused has not given any kind of explanation for the same and, therefore, presumption ought to have been invoked by the learned Special Judge. The sanction has been accorded after considering all the documents and application of mind. Therefore, the offence was proved beyond reasonable doubt; yet, the trial Court has picked up some irrelevant points to acquit the accused and, therefore, the appeal needs to be admitted.
