Section 34 IPC | Driving Accused to Crime Scene & Fleeing Post-Offence Establishes Common Intention : HP HC Denies Bail in Murder Case
The Himachal Pradesh High Court ruled that driving the assailant to the crime scene and fleeing afterward constitutes 'common intention' under Section 34 IPC, even without direct participation in the assault. This precedent strengthens prosecution arguments for vicarious liability in cases involving logistical support, impacting bail considerations for co-accused in violent crimes.
