Abstract

In the modern world, when crimes are at the peak and money is the only mode of exchange, people misuse this mode of exchange to get their work done fast, in a broader sense, when money is accepted in an illegal way between two people to get a particular work done, to influence a person or action or for political advantage, can be collectively termed as “Bribery”. The money or goods that are given to the receiver are termed as a “Bribe”. 

Under the IPC section “171B” and “171E” the definition and the punishment for bribe have been defined. Moreover, the Vigilance Department of India and the Anti-Corruption Bureau are the agencies that handle and investigate such cases. When a trap is laid down to catch such culprits, this strategy is called “A Trap Case”.
