As per case facts, Mahendra Mahadeo Binekar was convicted for the murder of Jyotibai Shinde and assault on Kapil Shinde with a knife, following a quarrel. The appellant challenged the ... conviction, arguing that a key witness was unreliable and that the incident lacked premeditation, occurring in the heat of passion, thus the offense of murder was not established. The question arose whether the trial court correctly assessed the evidence, particularly regarding the intent to commit murder and assault. Finally, the High Court found no infirmity in the trial court's judgment. It affirmed that multiple stab wounds on vital body parts indicated clear intent, and exceptions to murder were not applicable. The court upheld the conviction and dismissed the appeal.
