Judgment text excerpt

The appellant, a Police Constable convicted under Section 302 of the IPC for murdering his wife, challenged the conviction and sentence before the Supreme Court. The primary legal issue concerned whether the appellant was suffering from insanity at the time of the commission of the offence. The court examined the plea of insanity to determine if the appellant should be granted a reversal of the conviction and sentence.
