Case History
Summary of Criminal Appeal No. 554 of 2008 On May 16, 2012, the Supreme Court dismissed the appeal of Myalaram Pochaiah and 10 co-appellants challenging their convictions for murder and unlawful assembly. The appellants had been convicted by the trial court and High Court for a 2000 incident in Andhra Pradesh where they attacked and killed five persons (Konda Mohan, Konda Ravinder, Konda Sudershan, Konda Vardaiah, and Konda Janardhan) with lethal weapons near a village culvert, stemming from caste-based enmity. The Court upheld the convictions under IPC Sections 148 and 302/149, finding the eyewitness testimony reliable, medically corroborated, and devoid of material contradictions, rejecting the appellants' challenges regarding witness credibility.
