Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 307 IPC for attempted murder, Section 34 IPC for common intention, and Section 120B IPC for criminal conspiracy. The Court emphasized that the act of forcibly administering poison to the complainant constituted a clear intention to kill, satisfying the requirements of Section 307. The sentence of five years imprisonment was affirmed, along with a fine of Rs. 500, as the evidence supported the conviction beyond reasonable doubt.
