Factual Background
Neeraj Dutta vs State(Govt.Of N.C.T.Of Delhi) on 15 December, 2022
In Neeraj Dutta v. State (Govt of NCT of Delhi),3 the Supreme Court
observed that where the complainant is either deceased or otherwise
unavailable to testify, the demand for illegal gratification may still be
established through the testimony of other witnesses, either oral or
documentary, or by relying on circumstantial evidence adduced by the
prosecution. In the present case, the Trial Court has correctly noted in
Paragraph Nos. 19 to 21 of the impugned order that the narrative of the
Complaint was not corroborated by any other witness, and no circumstances
were brought on record to permit reliance upon its contents under Section 32
or any other exception to the hearsay rule.
