 "summary": "The 1st Additional Sessions Judge, Mavelikkara convicted Subash @ Manikuttan in SC 847/2011 on 29-01-2013 for murdering an Alappuzha man at Mannar on 16-05-2011, sentencing him to life imprisonment with a Rs 35,000 fine plus six months simple imprisonment for wrongful restraint; the official Kerala Police convicted-personnel list identifies the convict as Police Constable A 5759 of Alappuzha (Mannar Crime 248/2011) removed from service on 04-02-2014. The Kerala High Court (Justices A.M. Shaffique and A.M. Babu, Crl.A.418/2013, 20-03-2019) partly allowed the appeal, setting aside the s.302 murder conviction and instead convicting him under s.325 IPC (5 years RI + Rs 25,000 fine) while confirming the s.341 conviction.",
 "court_quote": "Conviction and sentence passed by the trial Court under Section 302 of I.P.C. is hereby set aside. The appellant is found guilty for offence under Section 325 of I.P.C. and is sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for five years.",
