Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the six appellants under Sections 148, 307, 324, and 323 of the Indian Penal Code, affirming that the prosecution established the presence of a common intention to commit murder and the use of deadly weapons during the assault. The Court found that the evidence, including eyewitness testimonies and forensic reports, sufficiently demonstrated the appellants' involvement in the violent attack on Bhajan Singh and his son. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, and the sentences imposed by the Special Court were confirmed.
