RAMJI SINGH vs STATE OF BIHAR

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Ramji Singh and his sons under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Indradeo Singh, affirming that the evidence of eyewitnesses, including the wife of the deceased, was credible despite the trial court's initial doubts regarding some witnesses. The Court emphasized that the motive rooted in a family dispute and the corroborative medical evidence supported the prosecution's case. The appeal against the conviction was dismissed, reinforcing the principle that eyewitness testimony can be sufficient for conviction when corroborated by medical evidence.
