Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant Babu under Sections 147, 148, 302/149, and 323/149 IPC for his involvement in a collective attack resulting in the deaths of Manoj and Ramu, and serious injuries to Devender. The Court found that the evidence presented by witnesses was consistent and corroborated the presence of the accused during the attack, dismissing the appellant's claims of insufficient evidence and contradictions among witnesses. The acquittal of co-accused Reshampal was not challenged, and the Court affirmed the trial court's decision regarding Babu's guilt.
