Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Tarlochan Singh under Sections 29 and 30 of the Arms Act while setting aside his conviction under Section 120-B IPC. The court found that the High Court had correctly assessed the evidence regarding the possession of illegal arms but erred in its interpretation of the conspiracy charge. The outcome reinforces the legal standards for conviction under the Arms Act in the context of possession and use of firearms.
