Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 498-A and 302 read with 34 IPC, affirming the findings of the Calcutta High Court. The Court reiterated that in cases based on circumstantial evidence, the guilt must be established beyond reasonable doubt, and all circumstances must point to the guilt of the accused. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the lower court's decision that the prosecution had sufficiently established the case against the accused.
