Indian Penal Code (IPC) 1860 Others

‘SINI’ with an intention to pick-pocket puts his hand into MINU’s pocket. MINU had a loaded pistol in his pocket. The thief touches the pistol and trigger goes on, whereby MINU is shot dead.

SINI will be liable only for attempting to pick-pocket and not for killing because she cannot be treated differently from all other pick-pockets who steal under exactly similar circumstances and same intention with no risk of causing death and with no greater care of avoid it.

SINY will be liable for attempting to murder.

SINY will be liable for culpable homicide not amounting to murder as his intention was definitely not to kill.

None of the above.
