Prosecution failed to prove a prima facie case for murder: evidence did not establish mens rea/premeditation or cause of death beyond reasonable doubt; facts were consistent with a non‑premeditated sudden fight (Exception 4 to s.300). Court amended charge under s.158 to culpable homicide (s.299) proceeded under s.304(a), accepted guilty plea and sentenced accused to 14 years' imprisonment.
