Summary The Gauhati High Court set aside the conviction of Ajit Hazarika under Section 302 IPC (murder) for killing his mother and remanded the case to the trial court. The court found reasonable doubt regarding whether the appellant was of unsound mind at the time of the offense, given evidence that he suffered from schizophrenia and was admitted for psychiatric treatment immediately after arrest, warranting an opportunity to present defense evidence under Section 84 IPC. The appellant was granted bail of Rs. 25,000 with a condition of psychiatric treatment. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
