Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Shri Ram (A-1) under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Trilokchand, affirming the findings of the Trial Court and the High Court. The Court found that the evidence of the sole eyewitness, PW-6, was credible and corroborated the prosecution's case, while the acquittal of Shobha Ram (A-2) was justified as she did not actively participate in the crime. The Court emphasized the importance of common intention in establishing liability under Section 34 IPC.
