A shoots B with the intention to kill her but unfortunately C comes in the way and A kills C with the bullet. Decide
A is liable for murder
A is not liable for murder but culpable homicide
A is only liable for negligence
None of the above
A person commits culpable homicide when he causes the death of another person while trying to kill the other person. Here the intention of the person who killed or grievously hurt any other person whom he didn’t want to kill or hurt is not considered. Hence Option B is correct.
