As per the Prevention of corruption act, 1988. Section 2(v)says as follws.
(v) Any person authorised by a court of justice to perform any duty, in connection with, including a liquidator, receiver or commissioner appointed by such court.
So in the abovementioned the statement says "Any person authorised by a court of justice to perform any duty" it means that if the a person appointed as a guardian to look after the childern when they are minor & if the appointed guardian takes any gratifiaction or bribe (which is one & the same) than he is punsibleable as per the prevention of corruption act, 1988 as the above mentioned clause interpretation looks like that he or she (guardian) is punsiable.
Pls tell me if i am wrong or right or if any case laws.
Thanking u all experts in advance.
