Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Section 302 read with Section 149 IPC and Section 3(2)(i) of the TADA Act, affirming life imprisonment for the murder of police personnel during a raid. The Court found sufficient evidence of a conspiracy among the accused to attack the police, leading to the fatal shooting. The sentences for additional charges under Sections 307 and 353 IPC were also confirmed, with no separate sentences for the Arms Act and theft charges.
