Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the convictions under Sections 147, 148, 326, 324, 325, 504, and 506(2) of the IPC, affirming the trial court's findings that the accused formed an unlawful assembly and inflicted serious injuries on the complainant, Gelabhai, using weapons. The Court noted that the injuries sustained were grave, warranting the sentences imposed, including rigorous imprisonment and fines. The appeals by the accused were dismissed, and the State's appeal for enhancement of sentence was also rejected, maintaining the original sentences.
