Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Sections 366 and 376 IPC for gang rape, affirming the concurrent findings of the trial court and High Court based on the testimonies of the prosecutrix and her parents, along with medical evidence. The Court noted the inadequacy of the ten-year sentence but refrained from altering it due to the State's failure to appeal on the sentencing issue. The appeal was consequently dismissed.
