Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the High Court's decision that overturned the Trial Court's acquittal of the accused under Sections 148 and 302 IPC. The Court emphasized that the prosecution must establish the common object of the unlawful assembly and the direct involvement of each accused in the murder. The Court ultimately upheld the High Court's ruling, finding sufficient evidence to support the conviction of the accused for murder, thus reversing the Trial Court's acquittal.
