Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 302, 307, 324, 148, 452, and 323 read with Section 149 of the IPC, affirming the life sentence and additional terms of imprisonment imposed by the trial court. The Court found that the evidence presented established the appellant's involvement in a premeditated attack resulting in the death of Chittar Lal and injuries to others. The Court noted that while some exaggerations in the testimonies were present, they did not undermine the core findings of guilt against the appellant.
