Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Amrik Singh, rejecting the appeals against the Punjab & Haryana High Court's dismissal of the State's appeal and the complainant's revision petition. The Court emphasized that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts and medical reports, sufficiently established the culpability of the appellants in the premeditated attack leading to the deceased's death. The Court affirmed the lower court's findings and maintained the sentence imposed on the convicted appellants.
