Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 302 IPC for the murder of Jaibir, establishing that the presence of multiple assailants armed with deadly weapons and the intent to kill were sufficient to prove the charge. The Court emphasized that the use of lethal force and the collective action of the accused demonstrated a clear intention to commit murder. The appeal against the conviction was dismissed, affirming the trial court's judgment and the life sentences imposed on the accused.
