casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court allowed the State's appeal and reinstated the conviction of Maharaj Singh and Bachan Singh for culpable homicide not amounting to murder under IPC Section 304 Part I with Section 34, rejecting the High Court's acquittal based on FIR delay. The Court found overwhelming eyewitness evidence proved the accused brutally attacked the victim with lathis, causing fatal head injuries, and reduced their sentence from 10 years to 5 years rigorous imprisonment.
