The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Selvaraj @ Chinnapaiyan under Section 302 IPC for the murder of his infant daughter. The Court found that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts, established the accused's intent and actions leading to the child's death. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of his appeal was rejected, affirming the life sentence and fine imposed by the trial court.
