Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under the Prevention of Corruption Act for demanding illegal gratification. The court found that the evidence presented established the appellant's misconduct as a public servant, justifying the lower court's decision. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the sentences imposed by the Madras High Court.
