Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the accused under Sections 302, 392, and 34 of the IPC, while modifying the death sentence of the first accused to rigorous imprisonment for life. The Court found that the evidence presented by the prosecution established a strong case against the accused, despite their claims of reasonable doubt. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision to set aside convictions under Sections 364 and 201 IPC, while maintaining the sentences for the remaining charges.
