Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Virendra Singh and others under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Bhagirath. The Court found that the actions of Virendra Singh and Hakim Singh in assaulting the deceased's family members and inciting Kamlesh to shoot Bhagirath constituted a common intention to commit murder. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the trial court's judgment and the High Court's decision.
