Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Komidi Sai Baba Reddy, rejecting the arguments regarding the reliability of eyewitness testimony and the fairness of the Test Identification Parade. The Court found that the evidence presented, despite challenges, sufficiently established the appellant's involvement in the crime. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the life sentence and fine imposed by the lower court.
