Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Section 394 and Section 302 read with Section 34 of the IPC, affirming the Delhi High Court's judgment. The Court emphasized that the evidence, including the identification of stolen items and witness testimonies, sufficiently established the involvement of the accused in the robbery and murder of the maid servant. The sentences of 10 years and life imprisonment were confirmed, with fines imposed, reflecting the gravity of the offences committed.
