Case Summary: Mukhtiyar Singh v. The State of Punjab (Crl.A. 795/2009) The Supreme Court partly allowed Mukhtiyar Singh's appeal on August 16, 2018, reducing his sentence from five years to three years rigorous imprisonment under IPC Section 304(II). Singh was convicted for fatally attacking an unarmed man with soties following a land dispute altercation in 1991. The Court considered mitigating factors including the incident's age, Singh's age (55+), family dependents, and his retaliation to verbal abuse toward his wife. Singh must surrender within four weeks to serve the remaining sentence or face immediate custody. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
