Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused based on the dying declaration of the deceased, Mst. Baby, finding it to be voluntary, natural, and reliable, with sufficient corroboration from medical evidence. The Court dismissed the appeal, affirming the lower courts' findings and emphasizing the credibility of the dying declaration. Additionally, the Court directed the state to verify if the appellants had completed their sentence of imprisonment, as they had already served 16 years, exceeding the 14-year requirement for life imprisonment in Madhya Pradesh.
