Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Mohammad Deen @ Mulla, affirming that the prosecution established the case beyond reasonable doubt. The Court noted that the trial court's findings on the presence of eye-witnesses and the nature of the injuries corroborated the charge of homicide. The High Court's decision to acquit the appellants of charges under Sections 201 and 148 IPC was also confirmed, emphasizing the sufficiency of evidence for the murder conviction alone.
