Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of the appellant under Section 302 IPC read with Section 34 IPC for the murder of his wife, Rekha, affirming the trial court's findings based on her dying declarations. The Court found that the prosecution established the elements of murder, including the common intention of the appellant and his brother-in-law to commit the act. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the conviction was rejected, confirming the life sentence and fine imposed by the trial court.
