Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 304 Part II and Section 201 read with Section 34 IPC, affirming the findings of the Karnataka High Court. The Court found the evidence of PW1 credible, dismissing the appellants' claims regarding its reliability. The Court also noted that the High Court's failure to consider Section 360 of the Cr.P.C. did not warrant interference, as the convictions were appropriate given the circumstances of the case.
