 "summary": "The Gujarat High Court confirmed the bribe-trap conviction of Police Head Constable, Jamadar (Investigation) of Kadi police station, who demanded Rs 500 from advocate Jashvantkumar Patel for a favourable report in a Section 202 CrPC court inquiry and was caught accepting the balance Rs 300 in an ACB trap on 13.10.1984 with marked notes recovered from his pocket. The Court held demand and wilful acceptance proved by the complainant, the independent panch and the panchnama, and rejected the defence that the notes were forcibly planted. The appeal, continued by the appellant's widow after his death, was dismissed and the sentences of 1 year RI under Section 161 IPC and 3 years RI under Section 5(2) of the 1947 PC Act were confirmed.",
