Summary

Appellants challenged their conviction under the Prevention of Corruption Act, contending that demand of illegal gratification was not proved. HELD-A duly proved voice recording supported by a Sec 65-B certificate, read with the trap proceedings, recovery and other corroborative circumstances, is sufficient to establish demand notwithstanding a hostile complainant. Recovery through a middleman acting under the public servant's directions constitutes valid acceptance. Conviction upheld.
