Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 302, 324, 148, and 149 IPC, affirming the High Court's decision. The Court established that the use of a bomb resulting in instantaneous death constitutes murder under Section 302 IPC, and the presence of multiple accused involved in the act justified the application of Sections 148 and 149 IPC. The Court found sufficient evidence of the appellant's direct involvement in the crime, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
