Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Sections 120B and 302 IPC, affirming the Patna High Court's decision which confirmed the Additional Sessions Judge's ruling. The Court established that the appellants conspired to murder the deceased due to his objections to their immoral activities, demonstrating a clear motive and premeditation. The judgment emphasized that threats made by the appellants constituted sufficient evidence of intent to kill, leading to the dismissal of the appeals.
