Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 302, 323, and 324 read with Section 34 IPC for the accused involved in the murder of Bhanwar Singh and causing injuries to Mukesh and Vinod. The Court emphasized the necessity of establishing common intention among the accused, which was evident from their coordinated attack on the deceased and the injured. The appeal against the Punjab and Haryana High Court's dismissal was rejected, affirming the trial court's findings and the legal principles surrounding joint liability in criminal acts.
