Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 341 and 302/109 IPC, affirming the High Court's decision that the appellants intentionally conspired to murder the deceased, Ravi. The Court found that the evidence established a clear premeditated attack, rejecting the argument for a lesser charge under Section 304 IPC. The Court held that the brutal nature of the assault and the involvement of all three appellants warranted the life imprisonment sentence under Section 302 IPC.
