Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 302/34 IPC for murder, affirming the life sentence imposed by the Gauhati High Court. The Court found that the oral dying declaration of the deceased was credible and corroborated by the circumstances of the case, despite the absence of direct evidence. The Court ruled that the prosecution had established the charge beyond reasonable doubt, and the appeal against conviction was dismissed.
