Judgment text excerpt
The appellants challenged their conviction under Sections 302 and 307 read with Section 149 of the Indian Penal Code. The case involves a conflict between two related groups, where the High Court had previously confirmed the convictions for murder and attempt to murder while setting aside convictions under Sections 224 and 225. The Supreme Court examined the merits of the conviction based on evidence provided by related witnesses and the circumstances of the incident.
