Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Sections 302 and 149 IPC for the murder of Dhyanpal Singh, affirming the findings of the Trial Court and the High Court. The Court noted that the evidence of four eyewitnesses was credible and corroborated by medical evidence, despite some discrepancies regarding the exact roles of the accused. The Court emphasized that the long-standing enmity over land disputes between the parties contributed to the incident, and the acquittal of some accused was justified due to lack of unanimous eyewitness accounts.
