Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Rajendra Singh and Triloki Singh under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Kameshwar Singh, affirming the findings of the lower courts regarding the homicidal nature of the death and the involvement of the accused in the crime. The Court noted that the prosecution established the presence of four eyewitnesses and the medical evidence corroborated the charges. The defense's claim of private defense was rejected as the evidence did not support their narrative of being the aggressors.
