Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the conviction of appellants under Sections 302, 364, and 201 of the IPC, upheld by the Uttarakhand High Court, in a case involving the murder of a young boy, Haseen. The case involved evidence from police investigations, post-mortem reports, and eyewitness testimonies. The court analyzed whether the evidence sufficiently proved the guilt of the appellants beyond reasonable doubt. Ultimately, the court upheld the conviction and sentences, affirming the lower courts' judgments.
