Judgment text excerpt

The appellants challenged their convictions under Sections 302/149, 307/149, and 436 of the Indian Penal Code following a trial court sentence of life imprisonment. The case examines the validity of convictions based on common object and unlawful assembly when co-accused are acquitted. The Supreme Court reviewed whether the evidence supported the liability of the appellants despite the High Court's acquittal of other co-accused.
