Satish Kisan Shivarkar ..Respondent Mrs.M.M.Deshmukh, APP, for the Applicant - State None for the Respondent CORAM : R.C.CHAVAN, J. DATE : 20TH JUNE, 2011 P.C. . Heard the learned APP. 2. This is an application for leave to file an Appeal against acquittal of a police constable for the offence punishable under Sections 7, 13(2) r/w. Section 13(1)(d) of the Prevention of Corruption Act rendered by the Special Judge, Pune. The first informant himself turned hostile. He stated that he told the accused that he is ready to pay Rs. 500/- for not sending the case to the Court. 2 Appln 521-2011 He admitted that in fact, Rs.500/- was paid by him and he got his Rickshaw released. He admitted that accused did not demand money. The learned APP wants me to rely on the evidence of panch and I.O., which can not make up for the damage caused by Complainant's admission. In face of this evidence, it cannot be said that the learned Special Judge, Pune erred in acquitting the respondent. Leave refused. Appeal is dismissed. (R.C.CHAVAN, J.)
