Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court allowed the appeals of the accused, Bhola and Khalil, who were convicted under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for murder. The Court noted that the trial court had acquitted the accused due to lack of evidence, but the High Court overturned this verdict, leading to their conviction and life imprisonment. The Supreme Court ordered their immediate release on bail, emphasizing the need for a detailed judgment to follow.
