Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the Bombay High Court's judgment which altered the conviction of the accused from Section 302 IPC to Section 304 Part-II IPC, while maintaining the conviction under Section 324 IPC. The Court held that the High Court's decision to reduce the charge was justified based on the evidence presented, and it upheld the order for compensation under Section 357 CrPC. The appeals were dismissed, affirming the High Court's modified conviction and sentence.
