Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the validity of the High Court's orders rejecting the appellant's plea for discharge under Section 227 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. The Court held that the evidence presented was sufficient to establish a prima facie case against the appellant and others for conspiracy to commit murder under Section 302 IPC. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, affirming the lower court's decisions and allowing the prosecution to proceed.
