Parveen vs State Of Haryana

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 398 and 401 IPC and Section 25 of the Arms Act, confirming the High Court's decision which dismissed the appeal against the sentence. The Court noted that the minimum sentence under Section 398 IPC is seven years, which was appropriately imposed by the Trial Court. The appellant's request for a reduced sentence was denied as he had already undergone three and a half years of custody, and the circumstances of the case warranted the minimum sentence due to the use of deadly weapons and pending cases against the accused.
