Anthracin Powder Traces on Individuals and Currency
Multiple sources report the detection of Anthracin powder on the fingers, shirts, and pant pockets of accused persons (Appellants No. 1 and 2), as well as on currency notes recovered from their possession. The powder was often found after applying it intentionally during investigations or traps, and traces were confirmed under ultraviolet light, which causes the powder to emit a bluish glow.

Use of Anthracin Powder in Verification and Evidence Collection
The powder was deliberately applied to currency notes by law enforcement officers to detect tampering or possession. Demonstrations were conducted to show its effect under UV light, confirming its property of emitting a bluish shine, which helped establish the presence of the powder on the notes and individuals involved. This process was integral to the evidence collection in corruption cases.
