JAMMU, July 27: Division Bench of State High Court comprising Acting Chief Justice Alok Aradhe and Justice M K Hanjura has upheld the life-imprisonment to Yashpal, who murdered his father Moti Ram for share in property in Uchhapind area of Billawar way back in January 2004.
After hearing both the sides, DB observed, “the present case boils down to a rude, brutal, premeditated intention of an inhuman homicide in cold blood accomplished by killing the deceased by the accused born from his ribs”.
“The accused killed the deceased with a fixed immediate purpose. He took the deceased out of his house forcibly. He concealed before the deceased his intention to kill him that he had in his mind”, the DB said, adding “prosecution has succeeded in providing that the accused has committed the crime imputed to him”.
“There is no merit in this appeal as such is dismissed and the judgment by the trial court whereby the accused has been convicted and sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for life is upheld”, the DB said.
