Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 364, 450, 302, and 201 IPC, affirming the High Court's decision that the evidence presented established a strong motive and opportunity for the crime. The Court noted that the deceased, Kalu, had identified the appellant as the main culprit prior to his murder, and the circumstances surrounding the case formed a complete chain of evidence leading to the appellant's guilt. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the lower courts' findings.
