Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal, setting aside the High Court's judgment that acquitted the respondents of the charges against them. The Court found that the High Court failed to adequately analyze the evidence presented by the prosecution and did not provide sufficient reasons for reversing the trial court's conviction. The matter was remitted to the High Court for a fresh consideration of the appeal on merits, with a directive to expedite the proceedings within six months.
