Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of Lakhan, affirming the High Court's decision. The Court found that the evidence presented by eyewitnesses Prem Shankar and Rakesh was credible and established the involvement of the appellants in the crime. The Court rejected the argument of false implication, noting that the trial and appellate courts had recorded concurrent findings of fact based on the evidence.
