Case Summary: Crl.A. No. 1268/1998 - RAMU v. STATE On 11 August 2004, the Supreme Court allowed Ramu's appeal and acquitted him of charges under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC, setting aside his life sentence. The court found the prosecution case doubtful based on post-mortem evidence showing injury No. 11 on the deceased's right hand could have resulted from a fall rather than a stick blow, with the doctor noting absent stick marks. Ramu was discharged from bail-bond liability. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
