Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Saun Singh, affirming the life sentence and fine imposed by the Sessions Court. The Court established that the prosecution successfully proved the involvement of the appellant in a premeditated attack, resulting in the death of the victim due to multiple injuries inflicted by sharp weapons. The Court found no merit in the appeal and confirmed the lower court's judgment.
