Case Summary: Crl.A. No. 1057/2001 - Varinder Kumar @ Babla v. State of Himachal Pradesh The Supreme Court heard appellant Varinder Kumar's appeal on October 3, 2002, against his conviction under Section 302 IPC (murder) for killing Ranjit Singh with a dagger at a teastall on October 1, 1996. While accepting the eyewitness testimony of the two prosecution witnesses as credible, the Court found the nature of the incident warranted conviction under Section 304 Part I IPC (causing death by negligence/rash act) rather than murder. The Court reduced the sentence from life imprisonment to eight years and disposed of the appeal accordingly.
