Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 302, 307, 148, and 149 IPC, affirming that all accused were liable for murder despite not directly inflicting injuries, as they were part of an unlawful assembly. The Court noted that the evidence of PW.5 was sufficient to establish the involvement of the accused in the crime, while the disowning of the prosecution story by PW.2 did not negate the overall evidence. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the High Court's findings that the accused acted in concert to commit the crime.
