Orders
Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed criminal appeals filed by eight convicted accused challenging their life imprisonment sentences for the murder of two victims (Dhananjay and Santosh) during a cricket match altercation in March 1998. The Court upheld the trial court and High Court convictions under Section 302 IPC read with Section 149 IPC, rejecting all defense arguments regarding witness credibility, lighting conditions, and the FIR timeline. The Court cancelled the appellants' bail bonds and directed them to surrender within four weeks to serve their remaining sentences; directed police to arrest them if they fail to comply.
