Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellants under Section 302 read with 34 of the IPC for the murder of Sarabjit Singh, affirming the trial and high court judgments. The appellants had been enlarged on bail after serving approximately eight years of incarceration. The Court noted procedural issues in serving notice to the first appellant but did not alter the conviction. The case underscores the importance of procedural compliance and the appellate court's deference to trial court findings in murder cases.
