The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Sections 7 and 13(2) read with Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, affirming the findings of the Trial Court and the High Court. The Court found sufficient corroboration of the demand and acceptance of bribe through the testimonies of PW-2 and PW-6, despite the hostile witness testimony of PW-3.
