Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Sections 147, 148, 324, 307, and 302 read with Section 149 IPC, affirming that the formation of an unlawful assembly with a common object to kill constituted a grave offense. The Court emphasized that the prosecution successfully established the presence of the accused at the scene and their involvement in the attack, which resulted in the death of the victim. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the lower court's findings and the application of the relevant IPC sections.
