Case History
On 23/07/2001, the Supreme Court granted special leave to appeal and altered Sama China Narsa Reddy's conviction from Section 300 (murder) to Section 304 Part II (causing death by negligence) of the Indian Penal Code, finding that while the deceased sustained head injuries causing intracranial haemorrhage, the appellant could not have reasonably anticipated that the blow would cause such injury. The Court imposed a five-year imprisonment sentence and disposed of the appeal accordingly. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
