BNS Section 191(2) | Mere Handing of Blunt Weapon Does Not Constitute Direct Participation in Life-Threatening Assault : Allahabad HC Grants Bail
Allahabad HC ruled that merely handing a stick to a co-accused during a violent assault does not amount to direct participation under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, justifying bail for the accused. The court distinguished between passive assistance and active infliction of life-threatening injuries, setting a precedent for assessing secondary liability in violent offences.
