In a case before us one Mr.A gave a bribe to Mr.B on behalf of MR.C.We have decided to initiate disciplinary actions against MR.A and Mr.C.In this case Mr.B would be a be our managements witness in both the chargesheet.My query is whether i should cite MrA as managements witness to the chargesheet issued to Mr C and vice-versa?How should inquiry officer prove the charges i.e whether he should call Mr A as management witness in case of Mr C and vice versa.What if both turn hostile/protect each other.NOTE:Mr B has already filed FIR.

Separate the chargesheet and conduct separate enquiries.
If A is merely a conduit, he can be made a management witness and in return may be let off lightly.

I think all the three are equally liable for offence if they were involve. however if you want to charge only A and C only B as witness is sufficient and both A and C are accused in both the inquiries.
