Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC, affirming the High Court's decision which maintained the life sentence. The Court found that the prosecution's failure to explain the injuries on the accused did not negate the evidence against him, as the dying declaration was corroborated by other witnesses. The Court ruled that the right to private defense was not established, and the arguments regarding the informant turning hostile did not undermine the prosecution's case, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
