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 that the death was homicidal and resulted from a coordinated attack by the accused. The Court noted that the prosecution established the presence of four eyewitnesses and that the injuries corroborated the claims of assault. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the sentences imposed by the High Court and the Trial Court.
