The following are two cases which happened in different organizations. Read these cases carefully, and you are the forensic investigator. Discuss these cases?

Case One: BRIBES & KICKBACKS

HR department observed that a certain officer in the Purchase department was resented by his colleagues and juniors as being arrogant and asocial. Upon enquiries it was revealed that in last few years, some vendors with whom business was low were delivering to this particular officer sweets and gifts and sometimes for the entire department. Few of such suppliers were not in approved list with the company. At annual HR review the employee was generally asked about his life and family where he proudly stated that his daughter stood first in her class. Interestingly the school he revealed was one of the expensive international schools in the city. Lifestyle improvements were also observed i.e.. use of branded products, travel by radio taxi on daily basis for commuting, etc. An inquiry into the matter was sought when at the annual Departmental Head meeting, the HR and Purchase Heads accidently discussed the employee in question at tea break, which was then escalated for approval by the management.
