Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the appeal against the Andhra Pradesh High Court's acquittal of the Respondent, who was convicted under Sections 7, 11, and 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. The Court held that the High Court erred in ruling the order of sanction inadmissible due to lack of proper proof by the prosecution. The Supreme Court ultimately reinstated the conviction, emphasizing the importance of corroborative evidence in corruption cases.
