The Supreme Court examined the appeals of Madhav and Sahodra Bai against their conviction under Section 302 read with Section 34 of the IPC for the murder of Pappu. The court upheld the conviction, finding sufficient evidence of common intention among the accused to commit the crime. The appeals were dismissed, affirming the life imprisonment sentence and fine imposed by the lower courts.
