Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 394 IPC for robbery involving grievous hurt, affirming the Rajasthan High Court's dismissal of their appeal. The Court emphasized that Section 394 IPC entails a more severe punishment than Section 392 IPC, as it involves causing harm during the commission of robbery. The evidence presented, particularly from the injured witness, was deemed sufficient to establish the guilt of the accused, leading to the confirmation of their sentences.
