Case History
Summary The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal of five appellants convicted for murder (Section 302/34), voluntarily causing grievous hurt (Section 326/34), rioting (Section 148), and criminal trespass (Section 447) in a land dispute over irrigation. The appellants claimed they were exercising their right to private defence while repairing their ridge, but the Court rejected this, finding they came armed with deadly weapons (gandasa, lathi, bhala, kudali) with premeditation and caused disproportionate injuries to unarmed persons, including one death, thereby forfeiting private defence protection. The conviction was upheld. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
