9.Sadhu Singh Harnam Singh v. State of Pepsu1 is a case where a Mahant went to the house of the accused who was having a drink party and the accused was respectful to him and was very anxious to show all hospitality to him. He wanted that the Mahant should not go away from his house without taking meals and spending the night with him. But seeing that the Mahant was going away, the accused fired his gun without aiming at the Mahant just to prevent him from leaving his place by terrifying him to some extent but unfortunately the shot hit the Mahant and he died. This Court held that on the materials placed it was not proved that the accused had an intention of firing at the Mahant but it was a wholly rash and negligent act on the part of the accused and accordingly convicted him under Section 304- A IPC.
