Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction and sentence of the appellants for gang rape under Section 376(2)(g) IPC, affirming the High Court's decision which dismissed their appeals. The Court noted that the appellants had committed repeated acts of rape and confinement of the victim, which warranted the sentences imposed by the Additional Sessions Judge. The plea for reduction of sentence based on a settlement between the appellants and the victim was not accepted, emphasizing the gravity of the offenses committed.
