A Division bench of Justices Ramesh Sinha and Saroj Yadav said that the the appellant was a menace to the society since he killed six innocent persons only because his wife opposed his illicit relationship with his sister-in-law.
“The postmortem reports disclose brutal, grotesque, diabolical murder, which clearly reflects the mindset of the appellant Sarvan. The manner in which offence was committed and also the magnitude of crime, in our view, places the present matter in the category of anti-social or socially abhorrent nature of crime. We concur with the finding of Trial Court that six persons were murdered by Sarvan in most brutal, grotesque, diabolical and dastardly manner arousing indignation and abhorrence of society which calls for an exemplary punishment,” the Court said in its 96-page judgement.
