Case History
Summary: The Supreme Court allowed Hardip Singh's appeal and acquitted him of murder charges (Section 302 IPC read with Section 34) but convicted him of voluntarily causing hurt (Section 324 IPC). The Court found that while Hardip injured Iqbal Singh (a rescuer) during an agricultural incident, the evidence did not support a finding of shared common intention to cause death. Since the appellant had already served over two years imprisonment, the Court directed his immediate release if not required in any other case.
