But the present salaries in government service is quite good.
Add the perks, other facilities, pension, etc. – the total comes to a respectable package.
And you find corruption in the top most ranks.
IAS and other officers amassing hundreds of crores.
The remedy lies in more active investigating agencies (they should be able to find out the more corrupt officers and keep them under surveillance) better investigation, and faster disposal of the cases.

Enforcing the fear of law requires a huge capital, much more than most people think.
1. Enough Enforcing officals which means the ratio of cops, officers per 10,000 population
2. Decent salaries (enough to prevent the lure of bribes)
3. Decent living conditions for enforcing officers
4. The Burden of work on each officer
Many factors favour the balance to tilt in favour of law being weak than law being implemented.

This should be the basic or prime evidence. Why look for what else he/she has done in the past and how the wealth has been gathered ?
