Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's reversal of the conviction, finding the prosecution's case improbable. Key findings included the absence of blackening or tattooing around the wounds, the recovery of a metal bullet inconsistent with a shotgun's pellets, and the lack of connection between the recovered gun and the murder. The Court concluded that the evidence did not support the prosecution's narrative, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
