SANNAIA SUBBA RAO vs STATE OF A.P.

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 366A and Section 372 read with Section 511 IPC, affirming the High Court's decision that the appellants were guilty of attempting to abduct a minor girl. The Court emphasized that the prosecution established the necessary elements of the crime, including the minor's age and the intent of the accused. The sentences of rigorous imprisonment for 10 years and 5 years were confirmed to run concurrently, thereby rejecting the earlier acquittal by the Additional Assistant Sessions Judge.
