flag Supreme Court allows state police to probe central officials for corruption without CBI approval.

flag The Supreme Court ruled that state police and anti-corruption units can investigate and file chargesheets against central government employees for corruption under the Prevention of Corruption Act without needing CBI permission. flag The court clarified that Section 17 of the Act allows any police agency, provided the investigating officer meets rank requirements, and that offences are cognizable, enabling action without a warrant. flag The decision, upholding a Rajasthan High Court ruling, confirms state agencies have legal authority to probe such cases, ensuring broader accountability and reducing procedural delays.
