Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants under Section 489B and Section 489C IPC, affirming the High Court's decision which sentenced them to five years' rigorous imprisonment and a fine for their involvement in the circulation of counterfeit currency. The Court found sufficient evidence, including the recovery of fake notes and testimonies linking the appellants to the crime, thereby establishing their culpability under the relevant sections of the IPC. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the lower courts' findings and sentences.
