VEDPAL vs STATE OF HARYANA

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 IPC, finding that the trial court and High Court provided cogent reasons for their decisions. The Court noted that the prosecution's case was supported by the medical evidence indicating firearm injuries, despite the absence of the Investigating Officer's testimony and the non-recovery of the weapon. The Court dismissed the appeal, affirming that the evidence from seriously injured eye-witnesses was credible and sufficient to sustain the conviction.
