Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant but ordered their release based on the sentence already undergone, emphasizing that justice would be served in this manner. The Court's decision reflects a balance between upholding legal accountability and recognizing the time already spent in custody. The appeal was thus disposed of with the order for release.
