Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's judgment of acquittal, emphasizing that the High Court's finding regarding the absence of two key eyewitnesses (P.Ws. 1 and 3) was based on a thorough examination of the evidence. The Court noted that the discrepancies highlighted by the High Court were significant and undermined the credibility of the eyewitnesses, thus supporting the acquittal. Consequently, the Supreme Court found no grounds for interference under Article 136 of the Constitution of India, dismissing the appeal.
