Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the accused under Section 376(2)(g) IPC, Section 506(1) IPC, and Section 4 of the Tamil Nadu Prevention of Women Harassment Act, affirming the trial court's findings. The Court emphasized that the evidence presented, including the victim's testimony and medical reports, sufficiently established the occurrence of gang rape and threats made to the victim. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the criminal appeals was therefore rejected, maintaining the sentences imposed by the trial court.
