https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=172517 Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act requires proof that a public servant obtained, for himself or another, a valuable thing or pecuniary advantage by corrupt or illegal means, by abusing official position, or without public interest. Mere receipt of money is not enough, and the Section 20 presumption does not apply to this offence. The evidence did not establish demand or obtainment: the complainant did not support the prosecution on demand or acceptance, and the panch witness gave no evidence of demand by the accused. The conviction under Section 13(1)(d)(i) was therefore unsustainable and was set aside, with acquittal on that count. en-us Wed, 24 Apr 2002 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 11:36:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=172517 Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act requires proof that a public servant obtained, for himself or another, a valuable thing or pecuniary advantage by corrupt or illegal means, by abusing official position, or without public interest.
