Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the Madhya Pradesh High Court's order which set aside the framing of charges under Section 304 Part II IPC and directed charges to be framed only under Section 323/34 IPC. The Court emphasized that the High Court's decision was erroneous as it disregarded the evidence indicating the possibility of culpable homicide. The Supreme Court reinstated the charges under Section 304 Part II IPC, holding that the High Court's order was not justified based on the facts presented.
