Perused the record. 4] The accused was facing charge for acquiring property having disproportionate assets to the tune of Rs.4,78,150.50 and accordingly tried under section 13(1)(e) of the Prevention of 2 Corruption Act . However,it appears from the judgment that while assessing the value of the assets of the accused police have not assessed the valuation of the plot as per it' s purchase price of year 1988,but valued it as per the market value of 1999.The learned trial Judge has highlighted this grave error and had dealt with this aspect and accordingly correctly appreciated the evidence. The A.P.P. is not in position to point out grave injustice and good ground to allow this application for leave against the acquittal. The application stands rejected. (Mrs.Mridula Bhatkar,J.)
