The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302/34 IPC for the murder of Hansraj Singh, affirming the findings of the Additional Sessions Judge and the Rajasthan High Court.

The appeal was dismissed, and the life imprisonment sentence was maintained, with a fine imposed for the conviction.
