State Of Maharashtra vs Arjun

The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's judgment acquitting Arjun (A-2) of charges under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC and Section 201 IPC, while maintaining the conviction of Indrajit Kaur (A-1). The Court found that the circumstantial evidence presented, including the purchase of poison and a gunny bag, was insufficient to establish A-2's guilt beyond reasonable doubt. The Court emphasized that the prosecution failed to prove the timeline of evidence and the connection to the crime, thus affirming the High Court's decision as free from infirmity.
