Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 4 of the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act, 1987 (TADA) for involvement in disruptive activities against the sovereignty of India, resulting in a sentence of 5 years rigorous imprisonment and a fine. The Court found that the evidence, including a confession under Section 15 of TADA, was sufficient to support the conviction despite the appellant's claims of illegal detention and coercion. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision and the consequences for the appellant's employment status.
