Shamshabad Police Detective Sub-Inspector vs State of A.P.
The Andhra Pradesh High Court (pre-bifurcation; incident in present-day Telangana) dismissed the appeal of Detective Sub-Inspector of Shamshabad Police Station and confirmed his conviction by the Additional Special Judge for SPE and ACB Cases, Hyderabad. The Court found he demanded Rs 500 from workshop owner [name withheld] as a motive for not foisting a stolen-property case on him, after earlier extracting two electric motors, and was caught in an ACB trap on 09-10-1989 with tainted currency recovered from his hip pocket and a positive phenolphthalein hand wash. It held the trap, demand and recovery proved by the complainant, mediators and official witnesses despite minor discrepancies, confirming one year rigorous imprisonment plus Rs 1,000 fine on each count (concurrent), with six months simple imprisonment in default of fine per count.
