Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's acquittal of the accused, finding that the High Court's conclusion 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 prosecution's case. Consequently, the Supreme Court dismissed the appeal under Article 136 of the Constitution of India, affirming the lower court's decision.
