Case History
Summary Bhavar Singh Pidhiyabhai Bhil's criminal appeal challenging his conviction for murder under Section 302 IPC was dismissed by the Supreme Court on 21 September 2004. The appellant was convicted for the murder of his brother-in-law Kendubhai Bhil, whose body was buried at the Narmada riverbed in Gujarat. The Court upheld the conviction based on the extra-judicial confession of co-accused Mukam Singh (corroborated in material particulars), recovery of the deceased's body at the appellant's instance, and testimony that the appellant was last seen with the deceased and gave false replies to the victim's daughter about his whereabouts. No interference with the lower courts' findings was warranted. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
