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 High Court's decision. The Court found that the evidence provided by eyewitnesses, including the complainant, was credible despite the defense's claims of bias due to familial relationships. The Court held that the sentences imposed by the trial court were appropriate given the nature of the injuries inflicted, thus dismissing the appeal.
