Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the four appellants under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Hemant Kumar, affirming the trial court's findings based on eyewitness testimony and medical evidence linking the injuries to the weapons used. The Court emphasized that the presence of the eyewitnesses at the scene and the immediate reporting of the incident to the police were crucial in establishing the case against the accused. The appeals were dismissed, and the life imprisonment sentence was maintained.
