Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 IPC for murder, Section 120B IPC for criminal conspiracy, and Section 460 IPC for house trespass with intent to commit an offence. The Court affirmed the life imprisonment sentences and fines imposed by the Sessions Court, emphasizing that the evidence presented was sufficient to establish the guilt of the accused beyond reasonable doubt. The judgment of the High Court, which dismissed the appeals of the appellants, was therefore upheld, confirming the lower court's findings.
