ANISETTI VEERABHADRA RAO vs STATE OF A.P.

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of A-1 and A-2 under Sections 302 and 448 IPC, affirming that the evidence from eyewitnesses and dying declarations sufficiently established their guilt in the murder of Yanamandra Subba Rao. The Court emphasized the importance of corroborative evidence in murder cases and confirmed that the trial court's reliance on eyewitness accounts was justified. The appeal was dismissed, and the life sentence for A-2 was maintained while A-1's sentence was reduced to one year for the lesser charge.
