The Supreme Court addressed the jurisdiction of the Special Judge under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, specifically regarding the trial of a non-public servant when the public servant has died before the trial commences. The Court held that the Special Judge retains jurisdiction to try cases related to the National Rural Health Mission Scam, even if the accused is not a public servant, as long as the case falls within the designated category of cases. This ruling clarifies the scope of the Special Judge's authority under the PC Act, ensuring that justice is served in complex corruption cases.
