JAMEEL vs STATE OF U.P.

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Jameel under Section 308 IPC for causing grievous hurt to Hasib Mohammad, confirming the High Court's decision which dismissed his appeal. The Court found that the trial court correctly established the common intention of the accused in inflicting injury, thus justifying the application of Section 308 IPC. The sentence of two years rigorous imprisonment was maintained, as the Court focused solely on the question of sentence.
