Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court overturned the High Court's decision, reinstating the convictions under Section 302 IPC and Section 307 IPC against the accused for the murder of Lakha Singh and attempted murder of others. The Court emphasized that the prosecution had established the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt through eyewitness testimony and corroborative evidence. The Court held that the High Court erred in allowing the appeal of the accused, thus affirming the life sentences and fines imposed by the Additional Sessions Judge.
