Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 302 and 332 IPC, affirming that the appellants, Bhupinder Singh and Roshan Lal, were guilty of murder and causing hurt to a public servant. The Court emphasized that the use of a wooden balli as a weapon constituted a clear intent to cause grievous harm, satisfying the requirements of Section 302 IPC. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision and the sentences imposed.
