Delhi High Court Ruling on Murder Charge
The Delhi High Court has observed that proof of motive is not necessary to sustain a murder charge, as stated in the case of Mohd Nawab v State NCT of Delhi.
A Division Bench of Justices Subramonium Prasad and Vimal Kumar Yadav noted that motive is not a required element of an offense, as many serious crimes are committed for trivial reasons.
The proof of motive is not necessary to sustain a conviction on a murder charge when there is clear evidence that the person had been done to death by the accused.
In essence, when the facts of the case are clear, the lack of proven motive does not impact the validity of the murder charge.
Author's summary: Delhi High Court rules motive not necessary for murder charge.
