Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Allahabad High Court's judgment, which upheld the acquittal of the accused under Sections 147, 148, and 302/149 IPC, was deficient as it lacked a reasoned order. The Court emphasized that a confirming judgment must address the merits and contentions raised, thus necessitating a fresh consideration by the High Court. The appeal was allowed, and the case was remitted for fresh disposal in accordance with law.
