The High Court upheld the convictions under Section 304(b) but found the 8-year sentence manifestly excessive given the facts (spontaneous affray, provocation by the deceased, elderly first offenders, absence of weapons used by appellants and misdirection by the trial judge on mitigation) and substituted the sentence with 30 months' imprisonment for each appellant, with specified commencement dates.
