Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Ram Khilawan, affirming the findings of the Madhya Pradesh High Court. The Court noted that the prosecution established the intent to kill through eyewitness accounts and medical evidence detailing the fatal injuries inflicted by the accused with a knife. The Court emphasized that the evidence was sufficient to prove the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt, leading to the dismissal of the appeal against conviction.
