Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal of Omprakash Banarasdas Gupta and Kaushalya Omprakash Banarasdas Gupta, finding the evidence against them unsatisfactory, thus overturning their conviction. In contrast, the conviction of Satish Omprakash Gupta was upheld, but his sentence was reduced to six months on each count. The Court ordered the discharge of bail bonds for the latter two appellants and directed the first appellant to surrender for the remaining sentence.
