Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed Criminal Appeals Nos. 974 of 2008, 975 of 2008, and 981 of 2011, concerning the conviction of Gurnam Singh, Gurmail Singh, Gurcharan Singh, and Sher Singh under Sections 302 and 149 IPC for the murder of Baljinder Singh. The Court held that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts and medical testimony, sufficiently established the accused's involvement in the crime, rejecting the argument that the act constituted culpable homicide not amounting to murder under Section 304 IPC. The appeals were dismissed, affirming the convictions and sentences imposed by the lower courts.
