April 20, 2025
|The Sunday Guardian
The Supreme Court has upheld the conviction of an army constable who fired at his colleagues using an AK-47 rifle after being unhappy with the food served at the mess.
The incident, which took place in 2010, resulted in serious injuries to fellow soldiers.
A bench of Justices Pankaj Mithal and S V N Bhatti delivered the ruling on April 17, overturning a 2014 decision by the Himachal Pradesh High Court that had acquitted the constable of charges under Section 307 of the Indian Penal Code (attempt to murder) and Section 27 of the Arms Act.
