A case was registered on 29.11.1999 on complaint against the accused alleging therein a demand of bribe of Rs. 20,000/- by Shri Arvind Mishra (IRS: 1989), Deputy Commissioner, Income Tax, Lucknow for issuing “No Dues Certificate” in prescribed format 34(A).

Subsequently, CBI laid a trap on 30.11.1999 and caught Shri Arvind Mishra, Deputy Commissioner (Income Tax), Lucknow red handed while demanding & accepting bribe of Rs. 15,000/- from Complainant.

After investigation, a charge-sheet was filed against the accused in the Court of Special Judge, CBI Cases, Lucknow.

In this case, trial had remained stayed most of the period as different petitions were pending in the matter before Hon’ble High Court. The petitions filed by accused were adequately countered by the CBI prosecutors. CBI was successful in convincing both the Trial Court and the Hon’ble High Court about the merits of the prosecution case which led to the rejection of the petitions of the accused and waiver of the stay/interim relief in favour of accused.

The Trial Court found the accused guilty and convicted him.
