order dated 11.5.2015 rendered by the High Court of Karnatka

Indian Penal Code, 1860 (for short “IPC”) read with Sections
13(1)(e) and 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988
(for short “1988 Act”) as framed against them and also

A4, as the case may be, contingent on the context...........................................
