Hem Raj And Anr. vs State Of Punjab

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Hem Raj under Section 302 IPC and Gian Chand and Baldev Raj under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC, affirming their life sentences. The Court found that the prosecution established the guilt of the appellants beyond reasonable doubt, as they were involved in a premeditated attack resulting in the death of Rajesh @ Toni. The Court also noted that the acquittal of the other accused under Section 120B IPC was justified, and the evidence presented was sufficient to support the convictions under Sections 323/34 and 324/34 IPC.
