Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the orders of the High Court rejecting the appellant's plea for discharge under Section 227 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. The Court found that the allegations of conspiracy to murder under Section 302 IPC were substantiated by sufficient evidence, and the appellant's involvement was not merely speculative. The Court emphasized that the Juvenile Justice Board's decision was appropriate given the circumstances of the case, affirming the lower court's rulings.
