Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court, in this case, addressed the appeal by the State of Jammu & Kashmir against the acquittal of S. Mohan Singh under Section 302 IPC. The Court held that the prosecution's case was corroborated by medical evidence and eyewitness accounts, establishing the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt. The appeal was allowed, and the conviction of S. Mohan Singh was reinstated, while the appeal against S. Prithpal Singh abated due to his death during the proceedings.
