Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of appellant No.1 under Section 324 IPC for causing hurt by dangerous weapons, sentencing him to 1.5 years of rigorous imprisonment, reduced from 3 years. Appellants No.2 and No.3, convicted under Section 323 IPC for voluntarily causing hurt, had their sentences reduced to the time already served, as they had undergone approximately 7 months of rigorous imprisonment. The Court emphasized the need for justice in sentencing, leading to the modification of the original sentences.
