Goverdhan vs The State Of Chhattisgarh

The Supreme Court reviewed the conviction of two appellants under Section 302 read with Section 34 of the IPC, upheld by the High Court, and emphasized the cautious approach required in interfering with concurrent findings of fact by lower courts. The Court referenced prior jurisprudence, including Mekala Sivaiah, to highlight that only perverse or materially ignorant findings warrant interference under Article 136. The Court ultimately maintained the conviction, underscoring the importance of respecting concurrent findings unless they are perverse.
