Judgment text excerpt

The appellants challenged their convictions under the IPC, the Arms Act, and the Terrorists and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA) arising from an encounter incident in 1989. The trial court had imposed various terms of rigorous imprisonment, including five years for offences under Section 307/149 IPC and Sections 3 and 5 of the TADA Act. This appeal under Section 19 of the TADA Act seeks to set aside the judgment of the Designated Court, Nabha.
