Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the convictions of the appellants under various sections of the IPC, including Section 302/149 for murder. The court found that while the conviction under Section 302 was upheld, the charges under Section 307 were not substantiated. The court ultimately confirmed the life sentences for the murder conviction, emphasizing the need for a thorough examination of evidence in such serious offences.
