Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the decision of the Designated Court under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act, 1987 (TADA) and Sections 307, 34, and 109 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). The Court held that confessional statements made under Section 15 of TADA could be relied upon for some accused while not for others, emphasizing the necessity of proper charges for admissibility. The Court ultimately upheld the reliance on confessions in the context of the case, affirming the convictions of the accused involved in the conspiracy to commit murder.
