Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 302/34 IPC for the murders of Chand Khan and Shabir Khan, affirming the High Court's decision that the appellants acted in concert with a common intention to kill. The Court emphasized that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts and medical reports, sufficiently established the culpability of the appellants. The appeal against the conviction was dismissed, thereby maintaining the life sentences imposed by the lower courts.
