 "summary": "The Special Judge, Dewas, on 19 October 2016 convicted [name withheld] — the investigating officer who had filed the challan in an NDPS case (Cr. Case No. 237/2014) — for demanding a Rs 5,000 bribe for submitting the challan, sentencing him to 4 years RI each under PC Act s.7 and s.13(2) with Rs 2,000 fines. On 26 October 2016 the MP High Court (CRA-1456-2016) suspended the sentence and admitted the appeal, noting defence arguments of contradictions and a missing section 65B Evidence Act certificate; the appeal remains pending. CAVEAT: officer's exact rank/posting and complainant details are not stated in the HC suspension order; police status inferred from challan-filing role.",
