PRABHU vs STATE OF M.P.

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 326 read with Section 34 IPC for causing grievous hurt using a dangerous weapon, while altering the previous conviction under Section 302 IPC. The Court emphasized that the prosecution failed to prove that all accused shared the same intention to kill, thus justifying the reduction in charges. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision to modify the conviction based on the nature of injuries inflicted and the involvement of the appellant in the incident.
