Attempt To Murder Case: Allahabad High Court Delivers Split Verdict In Appeal Against Acquittal Of Rebel SP MLA
The Allahabad High Court delivered a split verdict in a case involving an appeal against the acquittal of a former SP MLA, Abhay Singh, in an attempt to murder case. The court was divided on whether the lower court’s acquittal of Singh should be upheld or if he should be convicted.
