Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused-appellants under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Hazi Mohd. Yakub, rejecting their appeal against conviction under Section 304 Part I IPC. The Court found that the evidence established a premeditated conspiracy to rob the deceased, which culminated in his murder. The State's appeal for a more severe conviction was partially allowed, affirming the gravity of the crime and the culpability of the accused.
