Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, in Criminal Appeal No. 215 of 2011, held that the appellants, Gurmail Singh and another, who had already undergone more than one year of imprisonment, should be released considering the totality of circumstances. The Court emphasized that justice would be served by allowing their release, contingent upon their undertaking to pay Rs. 50,000 each to the complainant, Sadhu Singh, within four weeks. The appeal was thus disposed of with this direction.
