Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC, confirming the judgments of both the Trial Court and the High Court. The Court found no errors or irregularities in the lower courts' conclusions regarding the guilt of the appellants based on eyewitness testimonies and medical evidence. The appeals were dismissed, but the Court allowed the appellants to make representations for remission of their sentences to the State Government, which should be considered sympathetically within four months.
