Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC and Section 27 of the Arms Act for the premeditated murder of three police colleagues. The Court found that the prosecution established the appellant's guilt beyond reasonable doubt through eyewitness accounts, rejecting the defense claim of an external attack. The death sentence was stayed pending appeal, affirming the lower courts' findings of guilt and the appropriateness of the sentence.
