Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 3(1)(c) of the Official Secrets Act, 1923, affirming the lower courts' findings that the appellant supplied sensitive information to a foreign intelligence agency, which jeopardized national security. The Court found sufficient evidence, including expert opinions on recovered documents, to support the conviction. The appeal was dismissed, and the sentence of seven years rigorous imprisonment was confirmed.
