DATED: JULY 04, 2011 P.C: This is an application for leave to file appeal against the acquittal of the two respondents, a Police Sub-Inspector and a Police Constable, for the offences punishable under Sections 7 and 13 of the Prevention of Corruption Act recorded by the learned Ad-hoc Addl. Sessions Judge, Solapur in Special Case No.5 of 2004. The learned Judge held that the complainant was not a novice in the matter of anti-corruption cases, since he had previously filed five complaints and five trap cases had been filed on his complaints. In spite of this 2 APPLN-314.11 experience of participating in traps, the complainant stated that he had put the money in the drawer of the accused. Therefore, the learned Judge held that the possibility of the complainant putting the money of his own without there being a demand cannot be ruled out and hence refused to believe the complainant. No fault can be found with the view taken by the learned Judge. Leave refused. Appeal dismissed. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
