CW-2014-0027West, DelhiJudgment 30 May 2014

Delhi Police Sub-Inspector and others vs Central Bureau of Investigation

The Delhi High Court dismissed the appeal of Delhi Police Sub-Inspector [name withheld] and confirmed his conviction for demanding and accepting an Rs.8,000 bribe from complainant [name withheld] for not arresting him in a cross-case. The CBI trap on 10 July 2001 recovered the treated notes from the officer, and both his hand washes turned pink. The court held that the collective reading of the evidence of PWs 2 and 4 proved conscious demand and acceptance beyond reasonable doubt, attracting the presumption under Section 20 PC Act. It rejected the defences of planted money and defective procedure and held the 3-year RI sentence not disproportionate, cancelling bail bonds with surrender ordered. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.
