Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's conviction of appellants Mukhtiyar and Asif under Section 302/149 IPC for murder, affirming the death sentence for both, while Raziulla received life imprisonment. The Court also confirmed their conviction under Section 148 IPC for rioting and Section 25(1B) of the Arms Act for illegal possession of firearms. The Court noted that the High Court's reversal of the trial court's acquittal was justified based on the evidence presented, leading to the conclusion that the appellants acted in concert to commit the crime.
