S. RAGHU RAMAIAH vs STATE OF A.P.

The Supreme Court set aside the judgment of the Andhra Pradesh High Court which dismissed the appellant's appeal against conviction under Section 7 and Section 13(1)(d) read with Section 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. The Court found that the High Court's order was cryptic and lacked adequate reasoning, thus remitting the matter for fresh consideration. The Court emphasized the need for a detailed examination of the merits of the case and requested the High Court to dispose of the appeal within four months.
