Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Section 302 IPC, Section 120-B IPC, Sections 25(1)(c) and 27 of the Arms Act, and Section 5 of the TADA Act, affirming the Designated Court's findings. The Court ruled that confessional statements, despite the appellants' claims of inadmissibility due to lack of corroborative evidence and procedural violations, were valid as they met the necessary legal standards. The appeals were dismissed, and the sentences, including life imprisonment, were confirmed.
