    proves:
    A Demand Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The phenolphthalein test is a scientific method used to establish that a public servant handled or accepted tainted currency notes. A positive test only proves physical contact or acceptance of money. It does not prove demand, intention, or guilt. Courts have consistently held that the test is corroborative evidence and cannot substitute proof of demand and voluntary acceptance.
