According to the provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act 1988, which one of the following is NOT correct?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Under s.17 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, an Inspector (not a Sub-Inspector) of the Delhi Special Police Establishment, an Assistant Commissioner in the metropolitan areas of Mumbai, Calcutta, Madras and Ahmedabad, and a Deputy Superintendent elsewhere may investigate without a magistrate's order, so the incorrect statement is "A Sub-Inspector of Delhi Special Police Establishment, is authorized to investigate a matter generally without order of the Metropolitan Magistrate/ Magistrate of the first class".
