Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 5 of the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act, 1987 and Section 5 of the Explosive Substances Act, 1908, affirming the lower court's finding that the recovery of RDX and detonators from the accused constituted sufficient evidence of their involvement in terrorist activities. The Court clarified that while the prosecution failed to establish all ingredients of Section 3 of TADA, the evidence of possession of explosives was adequate for conviction under the cited sections. The sentences of rigorous imprisonment for eight years and fines were confirmed.
