Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals of three accused convicted under Sections 302, 148, and 323 read with Section 149 IPC for murder and related offenses. The Court held that the prosecution's narrative was credible and that the evidence supported the conviction, rejecting claims of suppressed facts and misrepresentation of the incident. The Court affirmed the lower courts' decisions, emphasizing that the right to appeal under Article 136 does not guarantee a right to appeal but allows for special leave to appeal.
