Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions of the appellants Narendra and Sanjay for offences under Sections 302, 307 read with Section 34 IPC and Section 452 IPC, affirming the life imprisonment and additional sentences imposed by the trial court. The Court found that the prosecution established the motive and the sequence of events leading to the fatal shooting of Roop Singh and the injuries inflicted on his wife, Sheela. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of their criminal appeals was rejected, confirming the lower court's findings and sentences.
