Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction under Section 302/34 IPC, affirming the High Court's reversal of the Trial Judge's acquittal of Kalyan Singh. The Court found that the High Court correctly identified the perverse nature of the Trial Judge's findings, particularly regarding witness testimonies that indicated Kalyan Singh's exhortation to Budh Singh to not let the enemy escape. The Court emphasized the importance of consistent witness statements in establishing culpability under the IPC.
