Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Sections 302, 149, and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code, emphasizing the importance of eyewitness testimony in establishing the conspiracy and intent behind the murder. The Court noted that the absence of certain witnesses, such as Vijay Kumar, did not undermine the credibility of the remaining evidence presented. The Court affirmed the lower courts' findings, concluding that the prosecution had successfully established the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
