Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the reduction of sentence by the High Court in a firearm injury case was improper, emphasizing that a minimum sentence of three years should have been imposed under applicable provisions. The Court modified the High Court's judgment, enhancing the sentence to three years. The appeal was allowed to this extent, reaffirming the need for appropriate sentencing in serious offenses involving firearms.
