Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC for murder and Section 27 of the Arms Act, affirming the High Court's decision. The Court found that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts and the First Information Report, sufficiently established the appellant's guilt despite the defense's claims regarding inconsistencies in medical evidence. The Court emphasized the importance of ocular evidence corroborated by the circumstances of the case, leading to the conclusion that the appellant was rightly convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.
