Corruption Intermediary Denied Pre-Arrest Bail After Evidence Reveals Potential Complicity in Bribery Scheme

April 25, 2025

Case Laws     Customs     HC

HC denied anticipatory bail in corruption facilitation case involving alleged bribery intermediary. The court found prima facie evidence of complicity based on audio transcripts and determined custodial investigation was necessary to identify co-conspirators and obtain voice samples. The applicant's explanation for withholding mobile phone was deemed unconvincing. Given the nature of offence and ongoing investigation stage, the court rejected anticipatory bail application, mandating the accused's cooperation with investigative proceedings under anti-corruption statutes.
