Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined an appeal against a conviction upheld by the Allahabad High Court, where the accused were convicted for the murder of Duga on 27 March 1982. The lower courts found the accused guilty based on evidence of assault with weapons during a dispute over crop harvesting. The court analyzed whether the conviction was justified based on the evidence and legal principles, ultimately affirming the lower courts' decision.
