Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's conviction of the appellants under Section 304 Part-II IPC, reversing the Trial Court's acquittal. The Court found that the High Court had justifiably assessed the evidence and concluded that the appellants, police constables, were guilty of culpable homicide not amounting to murder. The appeal was dismissed, and the bail of the appellants was cancelled, directing their immediate custody to serve the remaining sentence.
