HARIRAM vs STATE OF RAJASTHAN

The Supreme Court, in this case, addressed an appeal under Section 2 of the Supreme Court (Enlargement of Criminal Appellate Jurisdiction) Act, 1970, against the Rajasthan High Court's decision that overturned a lower court's acquittal of the accused under Section 302/34 IPC. The Court held that the High Court correctly re-evaluated the evidence of eyewitnesses, concluding that the prosecution had established the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt. Consequently, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court's conviction and life sentence for the accused.
