Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Gurcharan Singh, affirming the High Court's decision which found them guilty of conspiracy under Section 120-B IPC as well. The Court emphasized the sufficiency of evidence provided by eyewitnesses, including the victim's wife, and the medical testimony confirming the cause of death as multiple stab injuries. The sentences of life imprisonment and fines imposed by the lower courts were maintained, with all sentences ordered to run concurrently.
