Summary of Crl.A. No. 563/1997 (Joginder Singh v. State of Haryana) On November 25, 2003, the Supreme Court dismissed Joginder Singh's appeal against his conviction. The High Court had reduced his conviction from Section 302 IPC (murder) to Section 304 Part-II IPC (causing death by negligence) and sentenced him to five years rigorous imprisonment, rejecting his claim of exercising private defence. The Court found the High Court's detailed analysis sound and the sentence appropriate, dismissing all contentions that the sentence was excessive. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
