casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed the State of U.P.'s criminal appeal on February 26, 2004. Respondent Randhir (Guddu) was initially convicted under Section 302 IPC and sentenced to death by the trial court, but the High Court of Allahabad acquitted him, finding the prosecution failed to prove its circumstantial evidence case beyond reasonable doubt and that no credible chain of circumstances existed. The Supreme Court upheld the acquittal, holding it was not perverse and declined to interfere. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
