Radhey Shyam vs State Of U.P

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Radhey Shyam under Section 326 IPC for causing grievous hurt by throwing acid on Badlu Ram, confirming the sentence of four years of rigorous imprisonment. The Court noted that the appellant was initially charged under Section 307 IPC but was ultimately convicted under Section 326 IPC after the first accused was acquitted. The Court considered the long duration since the incident and the appellant's age at the time, but ultimately found the conviction justified based on the evidence presented.
