Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Ashok Kumar, affirming the findings of the trial court and High Court. The Court noted that the presence of eyewitnesses, including Ramesh Chander and Bharat, was credible despite minor discrepancies in the FIR and post-mortem report. The Court emphasized that the evidence was sufficient to establish the appellant's guilt beyond reasonable doubt, leading to the dismissal of the appeal against the life sentence and fine imposed.
