IF THERE IS NO PREVIOUS ANIMOSITY OR MOTIVE TO KILL, IT’S NOT MURDER: HYDERABAD HIGH COURT

The Hyderabad High Court said that if there is no previous animosity or intention or motive for the accused to kill a person, the courts will scale down the offence to the one under Section 304 Part I (punishment for causing death by negligence) and not the one of murder under Section 302 IPC (punishment for murder), and altered life imprisonment for the offences punishable under Sections 302 and 498-A of IPC given by the Sessions Judge to the one under Section 304 Part-I IPC, and sentenced the appellant to rigorous imprisonment for a period of 10 years. The verdict came after the accused approached the High challenging the judgment of the Mahila Sessions Judge, Vijayawada.
