Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed appeals by the Central Bureau of Investigation against a Karnataka High Court order discharging two accused in a corruption case under Section 13(2) read with Section 13(1)(d) and Section 7, 12 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, along with Section 120-B IPC. The Court noted that the respondents withdrew their revision petitions, leading to the erasure of the impugned order and allowing the trial court to proceed with framing charges and conducting the trial. The Court emphasized that the trial should continue without the influence of the High Court's previous opinion on the matter.
