Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Prem Kumar Chaudhary, affirming that the evidence of eyewitnesses, particularly PW-1 and PW-2, was credible and corroborated by medical evidence showing multiple injuries consistent with the assault. The Court noted that the motive stemmed from family disputes over property, and the absence of delay in lodging the FIR further supported the prosecution's case. The appeal was dismissed, maintaining the life sentence and fine imposed by the Trial Court.
