casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Crl.A. No. 954/2001 Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed Jagannath's criminal appeal on August 1, 2002, upholding his conviction for the murder of Maroti Shelkar under Section 302 IPC (life imprisonment plus Rs. 250 fine) and injury charges under Section 323 IPC. The Court found the circumstantial evidence—including appellant's presence near the incident site, his abnormal behavior of attacking while naked, recovery of his clothes, and injuries matching the attack—sufficient to establish guilt beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
