[5/31, 07:18] Judge Suthantheram: Acquitted under 306, but convicted under 304B IPC.
Reason for acquittal is suicide not estsblished. No charge under 302 as homicide. Defence version accidental death. As per 304 B Un natural death which includes homicide, suicide, accidental death. If ,no suicide, no homicide then whether conviction under 304 B for accidental death is proper? Can it be taken as prosecution neither proving suicide nor homicide, but proving unnatural death which is enough and as such not necessary for court to give finding that it is not accidental death.
Please clarify
