Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under various sections including Section 120-B IPC, Section 3(2)(i) and (ii) of the TADA Act, and Sections 3, 4, 5, and 6 of the Explosives Substances Act, affirming that the evidence established a criminal conspiracy to incite violence and terrorism following the Babri Masjid demolition. The Court emphasized that the prosecution successfully demonstrated the appellants' involvement in planning and executing acts of terrorism, thereby justifying the life sentences imposed by the designated TADA Court. The judgment reinforces the application of TADA in cases involving organized terrorism and violent conspiracies.
