1 APPLN-5466.10 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.5466 OF 2010 The State of Maharashtra .... Applicant Vs. Ranganath Jagannath Dadape .... Respondent Ms M.M. Deshmukh, APP, for the State. Shri Hrishikesh Mundargi for the Respondent. CORAM: R.C. CHAVAN, J. DATED: JUNE 16, 2011 P.C: Heard. This is an application for leave to file appeal against acquittal of the respondent for the offences punishable under Sections 7 and 13 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 recorded by the learned Special Judge, Kolhapur. I have gone through the copies of the depositions made available for my perusal by the learned APP. The learned Judge seems to have been influenced by the fact that the complainant had in the past also made complaints against public servants and had them trapped. The learned Judge has also observed that there is some discrepancy about the time 2 APPLN-5466.10 of visiting the accused and the Anti-Corruption Bureau's office. The learned Judge has found that it was incredible that in a day, the first demand, pre-trap panchnama and the trap were completed. These reasons would require an examination. Hence the application is allowed. Leave granted. Appeal is admitted. Action under Section 390 of Cr.P.C. to follow. (R.C. CHAVAN, J.)
