Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's conviction of the appellants under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Jojo, affirming that the prosecution proved the case beyond reasonable doubt. The Court noted that the appellants had conspired to kill Jojo due to familial opposition to his relationship with the minor daughter of appellant no. 1.
