State of A.P. v. R. Punnayya<\/a><\/em><\/strong>[27]. It was opined that \u201call \u2018murders\u2019 are \u2018culpable homicide\u2019 but not vice versa. Speaking generally \u2018culpable homicide\u2019 sans \u2018special characteristics of murder\u2019 is culpable homicide not amounting to murder.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\nSince every case is different from the other; therefore, it must be decided on its specific facts, circumstances, situation, the act itself and calibre of the offence. Hence, the Court’s duty is extremely significant and paramount in this scenario so as to give a fair and just decision in regards to each case. There can be a reliance on precedents but its believed that a different model of classification altogether or at least a better demarcation per se between the two provisions would be advantageous and beneficial. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
