- The court held that the prosecution proved beyond reasonable doubt that the three acted with a common intention to kill him over an earlier rivalry.
- The conviction relied heavily on the testimony of the victim's son Saurav, the lone eyewitness and an injured person, which was corroborated by medical and forensic evidence.
- Nishu Jha was acquitted of the Arms Act charge, and the court will hear arguments on sentencing on July 23.
