Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Sections 366 and 376 IPC for gang rape, affirming the trial court and High Court's findings based on the testimonies of the prosecutrix and her parents, as well as medical evidence indicating recent sexual intercourse and injuries. The Court noted the inadequacy of the ten-year sentence but refrained from altering it due to the State's failure to appeal on sentencing. The appeal was ultimately dismissed, affirming the lower courts' decisions.
