Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 302/149 IPC, 307/149 IPC, and 323/149 IPC for the accused involved in a murder and rioting case. The Court found that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts and medical reports, sufficiently established the guilt of the accused. The appeal was dismissed, and the sentences, including life imprisonment, were confirmed, although the appeal abated for two deceased accused.
