Anti Corruption Law
Bribery
The offence of offering, giving, receiving, or soliciting something of value to influence the actions of a public official or any other person in a position of trust.
Anti-corruption law criminalises both the public servant who accepts a bribe and the person who offers or gives it, reflecting the policy that corruption cannot be tackled effectively by punishing only one side of the transaction.
Prosecutions for bribery often rely heavily on evidence like trap operations and recovered marked currency, given the inherently secretive nature of the offence.
