Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Sections 323, 325, and 326 read with Section 34 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, affirming the findings of the Punjab and Haryana High Court. The Court noted that the testimonies of eyewitnesses, Piara Singh and Sito, were credible despite being relatives of the deceased, and the delay in lodging the FIR did not undermine the prosecution's case. The Court found the sentences of three months, two years, and seven years of rigorous imprisonment appropriate given the nature of the offences committed.
