casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Crl.A. No. 842/2000 (Manjit Singh v. State of Punjab) The Supreme Court upheld Manjit Singh's conviction for attempted murder (IPC Section 307) and TADA violations during a 1990 police encounter in Punjab, dismissing his arguments that eyewitness evidence was insufficient and no ballistic analysis was conducted. However, the Court reduced his sentence from 7 years to 5 years on both counts (to run concurrently), citing improved conditions in Punjab. The appeal was disposed of on December 14, 2000. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
