Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's acquittal of accused A2 to A5 in a murder case under Section 302 IPC, finding insufficient evidence to connect them to the crime. The Court noted that items recovered from A2 and A4 were common and not linked to the murder, and discrepancies in witness statements further weakened the prosecution's case. Consequently, the appeals filed by the complainant were dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
