This is an appeal against the judgment of the<\/p>\n<p>  learned Additional Sessions Judge, Bhadra, District<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                            2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Hanumangarh, dated 30.6.2007, whereby he convicted<\/p>\n<p>the accused appellant Fateh Singh for the offences<\/p>\n<p>under Sections 302 IPC &amp; 323 IPC and sentenced him<\/p>\n<p>to undergo imprisonment for life &amp; to pay a fine of<\/p>\n<p>Rs.5000\/- &amp; in default, to further undergo one year&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>R.I. for the offence u\/s.302 IPC and six months&#8217; simple<\/p>\n<p>imprisonment and a fine of Rs.500\/- &amp; in default, to<\/p>\n<p>further undergo one month&#8217;s S.I. for the offence<\/p>\n<p>u\/s.323 IPC. Both the substantive sentences were<\/p>\n<p>ordered to run concurrently.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>2.   Facts leading to this appeal are that on 22.9.05,<\/p>\n<p>one Hardutt Ram son of Munshi Ram by caste Jat<\/p>\n<p>resident of Dabri, made a statement before the S.H.O.,<\/p>\n<p>Police Station, Bhadra at Govt. Hospital that on<\/p>\n<p>21.9.05, when he &amp; his father Munshi Ram were taking<\/p>\n<p>`Hukka&#8217; at the `Chabutara&#8217;, his younger brother Fateh<\/p>\n<p>Singh (accused) came in a drunken state with lathi and<\/p>\n<p>inflicted two lathi blows on the head of his father and<\/p>\n<p>when his daughter Anita came to intervene, he inflicted<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                            3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>lathi blow on her person also. The motive of the<\/p>\n<p>incident as per the statement given by the informant<\/p>\n<p>Hardutt Ram, who is brother of accused, was that<\/p>\n<p>accused Fateh Singh wanted to sell his land, to which<\/p>\n<p>his father was objecting. Upon this report, a case under<\/p>\n<p>sections 341 &amp; 323 IPC IPC was registered and on<\/p>\n<p>26.9.05, injured Munshi Ram died in the hospital.<\/p>\n<p>Thereafter, the police filed challan against the accused<\/p>\n<p>appellant for the offences u\/ss.302, 323 and 341 IPC<\/p>\n<p>before the learned ACJM, Bhadra, who committed the<\/p>\n<p>case to the court of Sessions. Learned trial Judge<\/p>\n<p>framed charges against the accused u\/ss.302 and 323<\/p>\n<p>IPC to which he pleaded not guilty and claimed trial.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution examined 11 witnesses. The statement<\/p>\n<p>of the accused was recorded u\/s.313 CrPC. He led no<\/p>\n<p>defence. After hearing the arguments, the learned trial<\/p>\n<p>Judge convicted &amp; sentenced the accused appellant as<\/p>\n<p>above.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                  4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>3.   It has been contended by the learned counsel for<\/p>\n<p>the appellant that he does not want to dispute the<\/p>\n<p>incident but his only submission is that this case falls<\/p>\n<p>under Section 304 part II IPC and not under Section<\/p>\n<p>302 IPC, as according to him, the motive of the<\/p>\n<p>incident was that the accused wanted to sell his land,<\/p>\n<p>to which deceased Munshi Ram, who was father of<\/p>\n<p>accused,   objected      and   as     a   result,    the    accused<\/p>\n<p>appellant inflicted lathi blows on the head. There was<\/p>\n<p>no intention of the accused to kill his father.<\/p>\n<p>4.   On    the    contrary,      learned     Public     Prosecutor<\/p>\n<p>supported the judgment of the learned trial Court.<\/p>\n<p>5.   We have re-appreciated the evidence on record.<\/p>\n<p>The main witness of the incident is Hardutt, PW 2, who<\/p>\n<p>lodged the F.I.R., Ex.P.1 before the police by giving his<\/p>\n<p>statement.   In    the   court       statement      also,   he   has<\/p>\n<p>supported the contents of the F.I.R. and from his<\/p>\n<p>statement, it appears that the motive was only about<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                              5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>selling of land by accused, to which his father objected.<\/p>\n<p>According to this witness, when his father was taking<\/p>\n<p>`Hukka&#8217; at the `Chabutara&#8217;, his brother accused Fateh<\/p>\n<p>Singh came and told that he would sell his land and<\/p>\n<p>when his father objected, he inflicted lathi blows and<\/p>\n<p>after five days of the incident, his father died. During<\/p>\n<p>the course of the incident, his daughter Anita also<\/p>\n<p>sustained lathi blow given by accused for which he has<\/p>\n<p>been convicted for the offence under section 323 IPC.<\/p>\n<p>Anita, PW 1 has also supported this version.<\/p>\n<p>6.   From the evidence on record, it appears that the<\/p>\n<p>accused was having no intention to kill his father by<\/p>\n<p>inflicting lathi blows on the vital part of the body. It can<\/p>\n<p>safely be said that he was having knowledge that by<\/p>\n<p>this act, the death may likely to be caused. Therefore,<\/p>\n<p>this act of the accused falls under Clause III of Section<\/p>\n<p>299, which defines &#8220;culpable homicide not amounting<\/p>\n<p>to murder&#8221;, punishable u\/s.304 part II IPC vis-a-vis it<\/p>\n<p>can be termed as an act covered under Exception IV of<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                              6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Section 300 IPC, which also provides punishment for<\/p>\n<p>culpable homicide not amounting to murder, if the act<\/p>\n<p>is committed without premeditation in a sudden fight in<\/p>\n<p>the heat of passion upon a sudden quarrel and without<\/p>\n<p>offender having taken undue advantage or acted in a<\/p>\n<p>cruel or unusual manner. In the instant case, the fight<\/p>\n<p>took place on account of issue of selling of land by<\/p>\n<p>accused, to which his father objected, upon which the<\/p>\n<p>accused lost his patience and inflicted two lathi blows<\/p>\n<p>on his father&#8217;s head. Therefore, in our view, the<\/p>\n<p>contention of the accused appellant that it is a case<\/p>\n<p>falling under Section 304 part II IPC is full of merit.<\/p>\n<p>7.   Consequently, this appeal is allowed in part. While<\/p>\n<p>maintaining the conviction &amp; sentence recorded by the<\/p>\n<p>Additional Sessions Judge, Bhadra, Distt. Hanumangarh<\/p>\n<p>vide his judgment dt.30.6.07 against accused appellant<\/p>\n<p>Fateh Singh for the offence u\/s.323 IPC with six<\/p>\n<p>months&#8217; S.I. alongwith a fine of Rs.500\/- &amp; in default,<\/p>\n<p>to further undergo one month&#8217;s S.I., his conviction for<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                            7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the offence u\/s.302 IPC is altered to Section 304 part<\/p>\n<p>II IPC and he is sentenced to undergo four years&#8217; R.I.<\/p>\n<p>and a fine of Rs.5000\/- and in default, to further<\/p>\n<p>undergo six months&#8217; R.I. Accused is in jail, he will<\/p>\n<p>serve out the remaining part of the sentence awarded.<\/p>\n<p>(DEO NARAYAN THANVI), J.
