Difference between Murder and Culpable Homicide in IPC |Indian Penal Code |Sec 299 & 300 |MASKMOONJI - In this video we clearly explains about Difference between Murder and Culpable Homicide in IPC ubder section 299 and 300 in indian penal code
MURDER
The term "Murder" traces its origin form the Germanic word "morth" which means secret killing. Murder means when one person is killed by another person or a group of persons who have a pre-determined intention to end life of the former. An offence will not amount to 'Murder' unless it includes an offence which falls under the definition of culpable homicide as per the definition of 'Murder' under IPC. All murders are culpable homicide but all homicides are not murders. Section 299 and Section 300 of Indian Penal Code deal with murder.
HOMICIDE
The word homicide is supposedly derived from Latin where "homo" means man and "cida" means killing. Thus, homicide means the killing of a man by a man. Homicide can be lawful or unlawful. Culpable homicide is punishable by law and is further divided into two categories:
Culpable homicide amounting to murder
Culpable homicide not amounting to murder
MURDER AS PER SECTION 300 OF THE INDIAN PENAL CODE
Section 300 of the IPC reads as follows: 300. Murder. —Except in the cases hereinafter excepted, culpable homicide is murder, if the act by which the death is caused is done with the intention of causing death, or—
(Secondly) —If it is done with the intention of causing such bodily injury as the offender knows to be likely to cause the death of the person to whom the harm is caused, or—
(Thirdly) —If it is done with the intention of causing bodily injury to any person and the bodily injury intended to be inflicted is sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death, or—
(Fourthly) —If the person committing the act knows that it is so imminently dangerous that it must, in all probability, cause death or such bodily injury as is likely to cause death, and commits such act without any excuse for incurring the risk of causing death or such injury as aforesaid.
If we analyse the definition under Section 300 of the IPC, culpable homicide is considered as murder if:
The act is committed with an intention to cause death.
The act is done with the intention of causing such bodily injury for which the offender has knowledge that it would result in death.
The person has the knowledge that his act is dangerous and would cause death or bodily injury but still commits the act, this would amount to murder.
INGREDIENTS OF MURDER
Causing death: There should be an intention of causing death
Doing an act: There should be an intention to cause such bodily injury that is likely to cause death or
The act must be done with the knowledge that the act is likely to cause the death of another.
Section 299 of IPC reads as follows:
299. Culpable homicide — Whoever causes death by doing an act with the intention of causing death, or with the intention of causing such bodily injury as is likely to cause death, or with the knowledge that he is likely by such act to cause death, commits the offence of culpable homicide.
In the case of Reg. v. Govinda ( 1877) ILR 1 Bom 342), the accused had knocked down his wife, kept a knee on her chest and gave two to three violent blows with the closed fist on her face. This act produced extraversion of blood on her brain and afterwards, the wife died due to this. The act was not committed with the intention of causing death and the bodily injury was not sufficient to cause death in the ordinary course of nature. The accused was liable to culpable homicide not amounting to murder.
The difference between murder and culpable homicide is intention. If the intention is present the crime is said to be committed under Section 300 of IPC. If the intention is absent, then the crime is dealt under section 304 of IPC.
