Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for murder, affirming the High Court's reversal of the trial court's acquittal. The Court found that the prosecution established the presence of the appellants at the scene, their use of deadly weapons, and the intent to kill, thus satisfying the requirements for a conviction under the relevant sections. The Court also confirmed the concurrent sentences imposed for the lesser charge under Section 324 IPC, emphasizing the gravity of the offenses committed.
