Case Summary: Babu v. State of Karnataka (Crl.A. 1188/98) On November 28, 2000, the Supreme Court partially allowed the appeal of three accused in a 1993 murder case. The Court acquitted appellants A.2-Sundra and A.3-Vasu, finding insufficient evidence under Section 34 IPC to support their conviction; however, it confirmed the life sentence of A.1-Babu under Section 302 IPC, as eyewitness testimony reliably established his direct role in stabbing the victim Lokesh to death. The two acquitted appellants were directed for immediate release unless required in other cases. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
