Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal of Jai Prakash Tiwari against his conviction under Section 307 of the IPC and Sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act. The court upheld the findings of the lower courts, which confirmed that the appellant had attempted to murder the complainant by firing at him with a country-made pistol. The court noted that the appellant had already served a significant portion of his sentence and had been released on bail during the appeal process.
