Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the death sentence under Section 302 IPC for the appellant, who was convicted of murdering his wife and four children. The Court confirmed the findings of the Rajasthan High Court, which relied on the appellant's extra-judicial confession, his presence at the crime scene, and the recovery of the victim's belongings from him. The Court found the evidence credible and sufficient to affirm the conviction and sentence, emphasizing the gravity of the crime and the need for deterrence.
