Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Sections 302 and 201 of the IPC for murder and destruction of evidence. The court found that the evidence presented, including the post-mortem report indicating asphyxia due to strangulation, supported the conviction. The High Court's affirmation of the conviction was deemed appropriate based on the facts and circumstances of the case.
