The superintendent made the demand through the tax consultant and the businessman, the complainant, even paid Rs 20,000. Special judge SH Gwalani said there was no tax liability on him. “Though, accused No 1 (superintendent) was not authorized for scrutiny of ITR, but he wrongfully misrepresented the complainant through accused no 2 (tax consultant) andclaimed bribe amount in order to clear his I-T return for the year 2013-14 though there was no tax liability upon the complainant…. ,” the judge said.
