Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Selvamani Nadar, affirming the findings of the Madras High Court. The Court noted that the evidence from eyewitnesses was credible and established that the accused attacked the deceased with a stick, resulting in fatal injuries. The Court rejected the appellant's claims of innocence and the argument regarding the credibility of the witnesses, thereby confirming the life sentence imposed by the trial court.
