The Federal Court allowed the appeal, holding the prosecution failed to prove the requisite subjective intention under section 300(c) Penal Code (intention to inflict the specific injury sufficient in the ordinary course to cause death); the conviction for murder under s.302 was unsafe and was substituted with conviction under s.304(b) Penal Code; sentence imposed was seven years’ imprisonment from date of arrest.
