The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Sections 304 Part-I, 324, and 148 IPC, affirming the High Court's modification of the sentence for Section 304 Part-I from seven years to three years rigorous imprisonment. The Court established that the formation of an unlawful assembly and the use of deadly weapons constituted a grave offense, leading to the death of the deceased and injuries to others. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's findings and sentences against the appellants.
