STATE OF U.P. vs HARI — Crl.A. No. 949/2004

Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed the State of U.P.'s appeal on May 20, 2009. The appeal challenged the High Court's January 6, 2003 judgment that had partially allowed respondent Hari's criminal appeal, downgrading his conviction from Section 307 IPC (attempt to murder) to Section 324 IPC (voluntarily causing hurt) with sentencing of imprisonment already undergone and a Rs. 5,000 fine (or one year additional R.I. in default). The Supreme Court found no merit in the State's appeal and upheld the High Court's order. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
