Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Suresh Singhal under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Shyam Sunder and Section 304 IPC read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Kishan Lal. The Court found that the evidence presented, including eyewitness accounts, sufficiently established the appellant's guilt beyond reasonable doubt. The appeal against the conviction was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision and rejecting the State's plea for the death penalty for the appellant.
