Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 324 IPC for causing grievous hurt by a knife, affirming the trial court's decision and the High Court's dismissal of the revision application. The Court found that the evidence of the injured witness was credible and corroborated by other witnesses, dismissing the appellant's claims of false implication due to animosity. The sentence of one year rigorous imprisonment was maintained as appropriate given the circumstances of the case.
