Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Ram Pratap for murder under Section 302 of the IPC, while setting aside his conviction under Section 120-B. The court found that the High Court's decision to maintain the life sentence was justified based on the evidence presented, particularly the testimony of the deceased's brother. The acquittal of the other accused was also confirmed by the court.
