Mukut Bihari & Anr vs State Of Rajasthan on 25 May, 2012

21. I am not persuaded by the aforesaid submission of the learned Senior counsel. As pointed out by the learned Government Advocate, the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court reported in (2012) 11 SCC 642 (Mukut Bihari V. State of Rajasthan) answers atleast two of the contentions raised by the learned Senior counsel appearing for the appellant. It has been clearly held in the said case that the acceptance of submission of the accused that the complainant's version required corroboration in all circumstances, in abstract would encourage the bribe taker to receive illegal gratification in privacy and then insist for corroboration for the case of the prosecution. Only if the evidence is found to be unreliable or there is contradiction, corroboration may be necessary. Likewise non-observance of the instructions in the Vigilance manual will not vitiate the proceedings. They are merely instructions and guidelines and they do not have statutory force and therefore non-observance thereof would not vitiate the proceedings.
