Karmajit Singh @ Pappu vs State Of Punjab

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Karmajit Singh under Section 302 IPC for murder, Section 307 IPC for attempted murder, and Section 436 IPC for arson, in connection with the attack on the house of Bhag Singh on the night of 7th-8th October 1991, resulting in six deaths and injuries to others. The Court found the eyewitness testimony of Ajit Singh and Ramji credible, despite the absence of a test identification parade, as they identified the accused both at the scene and in court. The Court emphasized that the lack of enmity between the witnesses and the accused supported the reliability of their testimonies, affirming the lower court's findings and the accused's conviction.
