Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Sections 449, 341, and 302 read with 34 IPC, affirming the findings of the Madras High Court. The Court ruled that the testimony of PW-1, the deceased's brother, could be relied upon despite being an interested witness, as it was corroborated by the circumstances of the case. The Court dismissed the appellant's claims regarding the FIR being fabricated and the suppression of evidence, thus maintaining the conviction and sentence imposed by the lower courts.
