Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court examined the acquittal of respondents under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC by the High Court, which had overturned the Sessions Court's conviction. The Court emphasized that the prosecution must prove the guilt beyond reasonable doubt, and in this case, the evidence presented was insufficient to establish the respondents' culpability. Consequently, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision, affirming the acquittal of the accused.
