JUDGMENT/ORDER VINAY JOSHI, J. - RULE. Rule made returnable forthwith. Heard finally by consent of learned Counsel appearing for the respective parties. 2. The petitioner has challenged the order dtd. 29/3/2019 passed by the Additional Session Judge, Chandrapur accepting the closure report as well as sought directions to recall the decision of the respondent no.3 Divisional Commissioner, Nagpur Division, Nagpur dtd. 4/12/2015 refusing to grant sanction and subsequent related communications. 3. It is the petitioner's case that on 25/4/2014, he has made a complaint to the respondent no. 5 Police Inspector, Anti Corruption Bureau, Wardha about the alleged demand of bribe for taking relevant mutation entry by respondent no.8, who was working as the Revenue Officer. In pursuance of said complaint, the Anti Corruption Bureau arranged trap, which was turned to be successful in which respondent no.8 was allegedly found accepting bribe of Rs.5, 000.00. After completion of investigation, papers were forwarded by respondent no.4 Director General of Anti Corruption Bureau, Mumbai to respondent no.2 Additional Secretary, Home Department, Mantralaya for sanction to prosecute in terms of Sec. 19 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. The said sanction was refused vide communication dated 04. 12.2015. After receipt of said communication, the spectrographic report was received on 4/2/2016 stating that audio samples matches and voice of complainant and respondent no. 8 has been identified to be similar. On that basis, again respondent no.4 submitted a proposal to the respondent no. 2 for reconsidering refusal of sanction on account of new material, which emerges after refusal of sanction. In response, respondent no.2 has communicated to respondent no.4 that as per Circular if there is new material, a fresh proposal can be sent for sanction. However, respondent no.4 has misinterpreted the letter and communicated to respondent no.7 that the sanction has been once again refused. 4. It is apparent that the very purport of the letter issued by respondent no. 2 dated 26/29/7.2017 was to re-forward the proposal on the basis of new material but it did not happen. Obviously, on the basis of new material, the authority has to reconsider the aspect of sanction in accordance with law. In view of that the impugned communication as well as order of closure does not sustain in the eyes of law. 5. In the circumstance, the petition is allowed. We hereby quashed and set aside the order of closure acceptance report dtd. In view of that the impugned communication as well as order of closure does not sustain in the eyes of law. 5.
