Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Rajmohan and Niranjan Singh, affirming that the prosecution established the case through credible eyewitness accounts and oral dying declarations. The Court emphasized the importance of motive, noting the longstanding enmity over agricultural land between the parties involved. The judgment confirmed that the evidence presented was sufficient to sustain the conviction, rejecting the defense's claims of false implication due to family disputes.
