Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Section 302 and Section 324 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Rajeswaran and for attempting to murder his brother, respectively. The Court confirmed the life imprisonment sentence, emphasizing that the actions of the appellants were premeditated and executed in furtherance of a common intention. The judgment reinforced the principle that joint liability under Section 34 IPC applies when multiple individuals act in concert to commit a crime.
