Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Vadivel, affirming the findings of the Madras High Court. The Court emphasized that the prosecution established the common intention of the accused as members of an unlawful assembly, leading to the fatal assault. The Court found that the trial court's individual assessment of the accused's roles was justified, resulting in life imprisonment for the appellants.
