    Solution

    The PC Act punishes not only completed offences but also attempts to commit offences. Abetment is also independently punishable under the Act and does not require the actual acceptance of money or completion of the offence. A person who instigates, facilitates, or aids the commission of corruption can be held liable even if the bribe does not ultimately change hands.
