Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of accused-appellants Rizan and Duda under Sections 326 and 323 IPC, respectively, for causing injuries to Jhanguram and Pandri Bai. The Court found that the prosecution established the injuries inflicted were not covered under Section 307 IPC, and the acquittal of other accused did not undermine the convictions of Rizan and Duda. The sentences of Rizan for two years and Duda for two months were maintained, affirming the High Court's decision.
