State of Punjab The Supreme Court allowed Gurnam Singh's appeal challenging the High Court's confiscation of his licensed .315 rifle (No. AB-793257) used in causing grievous injury to another person. The Court set aside the confiscation order, recognizing the 86-year-old appellant's medical needs, and directed release of the rifle under the condition that he cannot use it but may sell it to a licensed arms dealer.
