casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court dismissed appeals by relatives of public servants accused under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. The court held that non-public servants can be prosecuted as co-accused for abetting offences under Section 13(1)(e) of the P.C. Act (possessing disproportionate assets), rejecting the argument that only public servants can commit this offence. The court found legislative intent and practical examples supporting abetment liability for relatives who facilitate illegal wealth accumulation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
