Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Pappu Tiwary and Law Tiwari for the murder of Vikas Kumar Singh, affirming the lower court's findings based on eyewitness testimony and circumstantial evidence. The court emphasized the importance of the collective actions of the accused in establishing their culpability. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the principle that participation in a group attack can lead to shared liability for the resulting crime.
