Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Sardar Singh Thakur, affirming the High Court's reversal of the trial court's acquittal. The Court emphasized that the identity of the assailants was sufficiently established through eyewitness testimony and corroborated by the recovery of weapons under Section 27 of the Evidence Act. The Court found no merit in the appellants' claims and confirmed the life imprisonment sentence imposed by the High Court.
