Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 419 and Section 467 IPC for impersonation and forgery, affirming the concurrent sentences of one year and three years of rigorous imprisonment respectively. The Court found that the prosecution established the appellant's guilt beyond reasonable doubt through witness testimonies and evidence of the fraudulent sale deeds executed in the name of Kewal Krishan Loomba. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the revision petition was therefore dismissed, confirming the lower courts' decisions.
