Section 302 IPC | Ocular Testimony Alone Sufficient for Murder Conviction If Credible and Unimpeachable: Kerala HC
Kerala High Court rules that conviction under Section 302 IPC can rest solely on eyewitness testimony if it is reliable and unimpeached, even without corroborative evidence like motive or independent witnesses. The judgment reinforces that direct evidence, when trustworthy, can independently establish guilt in murder cases.
