Mahadeo Sahni & Ors vs State Of Bihar

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the conviction under Section 302 read with Section 149 IPC, emphasizing that while it typically refrains from re-evaluating evidence, it may do so to prevent miscarriage of justice. The Court found that the nature of injuries and eyewitness accounts did not support the claim for a lesser charge under Section 304 Part II IPC. Consequently, the Court upheld the conviction and sentence under Section 302 IPC, affirming the trial court's decision.
