an idiosyncratic reaction, causes a different fatal pathology than intended. The victim
dies. Under the Indian Penal Code, which section best captures the offender's liability?
A. Section 299 - Culpable homicide not B. Section 300 - Murder, because the
amounting to murder, because the death intention to cause death is present and
was not caused in the manner intended. death results.
C. Section 304A - Causing death by D. Section 307 - Attempt to murder,
negligence, because the death was because the actual causation deviated from
unintended in its specific mechanism. the intended means.
Correct: B - Section 300 - Murder, because the intention to cause death is present and
death results.
Rationale:Under Section 300 IPC, murder requires intention to cause death. The specific
means of causing death is irrelevant; if death results from an act done with intent to cause
death, it is murder. The idiosyncratic reaction does not break the chain of causation. Section
299 requires knowledge or intention but with lesser gravity; here intention is clear. Section
304A applies only to rash or negligent acts without intent. Section 307 applies only if death
does not occur.
Q2.
During a heated argument, A picks up a heavy stone and throws it at B, intending to cause
grievous hurt. The stone misses B but strikes and kills C, a bystander. A is charged with
murder of C. Which legal principle is most relevant to A's liability?
A. Transferred malice under Section 301 B. Constructive liability under Section 34
IPC. IPC.
C. Doctrine of causation under Section 299 D. Mistake of fact under Section 76 IPC.
IPC.
Correct: A - Transferred malice under Section 301 IPC.
Rationale:Section 301 IPC embodies the doctrine of transferred malice: if a person causes
death by an act done with intent to cause death or grievous hurt to one person, and
accidentally causes death of another, the offence is the same as if the intended person had
been killed. Here, A intended grievous hurt to B, so the act causing C's death is culpable
homicide. Section 34 requires common intention, not present here. Section 299 defines
causation but not the transfer. Section 76 is inapplicable.

Q3.
A police officer, without a warrant, arrests a person based on a reasonable suspicion that
the person has committed a cognizable offence. The arrest is made at 10:00 PM. The
person is produced before a magistrate at 11:30 AM the next day. Is the arrest lawful under
the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973?
A. Yes, because the arrest was made on B. Yes, because the person was produced

C. No, because a warrant is required for D. No, because the person must be
arrest after sunset. produced within 24 hours excluding the time
necessary for the journey from the place of
arrest to the magistrate.
Correct: D - No, because the person must be produced within 24 hours excluding the time
necessary for the journey from the place of arrest to the magistrate.
Rationale:Under Section 57 CrPC, a person arrested without warrant must be produced
before a magistrate within 24 hours of arrest, excluding the time necessary for the journey.
Here, from 10 PM to 11:30 AM next day is 13.5 hours, which is within 24 hours, but the
journey time must be excluded. The statement does not specify journey time; however, the
key is that the requirement is 24 hours exclusive of travel time. Option D correctly states the
legal requirement. Option A is true but incomplete; the lawfulness also depends on timely
production. Option B ignores the journey exclusion. Option C is incorrect because warrantless
arrest for cognizable offences is allowed at any time.
Q4.
In a prosecution for dowry death under Section 304B IPC, the prosecution must establish
that the deceased was subjected to cruelty or harassment 'soon before her death' in
connection with a demand for dowry. Which of the following best interprets the phrase

Correct: B - There must be a proximate and live link between the cruelty/harassment and
the death, without any fixed time limit.
