Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under the Army Act, 1950, specifically referencing Section 130 and Section 122. The Court established that the General Court Martial (GCM) proceedings were conducted in accordance with the law, and the appellant's objections regarding procedural irregularities were found to be without merit. Consequently, the Court dismissed the appeal, affirming the one-year rigorous imprisonment and cashiering from service imposed by the GCM.
