Case History
Summary of Devkaran v. State of Rajasthan (Crl.A. No. 1100/1998) On March 3, 2005, the Supreme Court disposed of the criminal appeal arising from a 1977 property dispute that turned fatal. The Court confirmed murder conviction (Section 302 IPC) for appellant Devkaran, who delivered the fatal blow to Dhanna's head during a confrontation over harvesting leaves from disputed land. The Court partially allowed the appeal, acquitting appellants Kanna, Sangram, and Ramkaran of murder charges but convicting them under Section 326 IPC (causing grievous hurt) with three-year sentences; their bail was cancelled.
