Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Gurmeet Singh under Section 304-B of the IPC for dowry death, affirming the High Court's decision. The court found sufficient evidence of physical assault and dowry demands made by the appellant and his family against the deceased. The sentence of seven years rigorous imprisonment was deemed appropriate given the circumstances of the case.
