Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal by the State against the High Court's order reducing the sentence of the accused convicted under Sections 294 and 307 read with Section 34 IPC. The Court reaffirmed that the use of firearms with the intention to kill constitutes a serious offense, emphasizing the necessity of appropriate punishment for such actions. The Court ultimately restored the original sentence of three years Rigorous Imprisonment, rejecting the High Court's leniency.
