Subhashchandra Joshi vs State of M.P.
The judgment of the Madhya Pradesh High Court records the following account. Head Constable Subhashchandra Joshi of Pipalrawan Police Station, Dewas, while investigating a case against complainant [name withheld] and his three brothers, demanded Rs. 1,500 to release them on bail, threatening to send them to jail if unpaid. On 18.07.1999 the Lokayukta (SPE Ujjain) trapped him red-handed inside the police station accepting treated currency, with a positive phenolphthalein test and recovery of the notes from his bag. The Special Judge, Dewas, convicted him under Sections 7 and 13(1)(d) read with Section 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act. The Madhya Pradesh High Court (Indore Bench) dismissed his appeal, holding motive, demand and acceptance proved and rejecting his afterthought medicine-contamination defence, directing surrender by 02.04.2012.
