Head Note
Indian Penal Code,1860 - Section 304 , Section 149
Looking at the nature of injuries sustained by the deceased and the circumstances as enumerated the conclusion is irresistible that the death was caused by the acts of the accused done with the intention of causing such bodily injury as is likely to cause death and therefore the offence would squarely come within the first part of Section 304 IPC and the appellants would be liable to be convicted for the said offence - The conviction of the appellants/accused under Section 304 Part II read with Section 149 IPC by the High Court is liable to be set aside - Imposition of 7 years rigorous imprisonment on each of the appellants for the conviction under Section 304 Part I IPC would meet the ends of justice.
