Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Sections 364, 302, 307 read with Section 120B IPC, affirming the High Court's decision which had confirmed the trial court's findings. The Court emphasized that the evidence presented, including the nature of injuries sustained by the victim and the circumstances of the abduction, established a clear case of conspiracy and intent to kill. The appeals were dismissed, maintaining the sentences imposed by the lower courts.
