Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 302/34 IPC, 341/34 IPC, and 307/34 IPC for the appellants involved in a pre-planned murder case. The court noted that the trial court's sentencing of life imprisonment and fines was appropriate, as the crime was not classified as one of the rarest of rare cases. The appeals against the High Court's dismissal of their earlier appeals were therefore rejected, affirming the lower court's findings.
