Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed appeals arising from convictions related to bomb blasts in Surat, holding that the Designated Court's findings were supported by evidence under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act, 1987 (TADA). The Court emphasized the need for a thorough examination of the evidence presented, particularly regarding the motivations behind the attacks linked to communal riots following the Babri Masjid demolition. The appeals by the State for sentence enhancement were considered, affirming the convictions while addressing the gravity of the offenses committed under TADA.
