Case Analysis: Maniklal Sahu v. State of Chhattisgarh (2025 INSC 1107)
The Supreme Court has delivered a landmark ruling clarifying the principles of causation in homicide law. This judgment answers a crucial question: when death occurs months after an assault due to medical complications, does it amount to Murder (Sec. 302 IPC) or Attempt to Murder (Sec. 307 IPC)?
🔹 Trial Court: Convicted the accused under Section 302 IPC (Murder).
🔹 High Court: Altered conviction to Section 307 IPC (Attempt to Murder), citing delay and medical complications.
🔹 Supreme Court: Corrected this “gross error” and clarified that supervening medical conditions like septicemia and pneumonia do not break the chain of causation.
This case reinforces that if death is the natural and probable consequence of an assault, liability under Section 302 remains intact — regardless of medical delay, treatment quality, or complications.
