CrPC Section 302
Certainly! Here’s an explanation of Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), since CrPC Sections generally don’t go as high as 302 (CrPC mostly deals with procedure, while IPC deals with offences):
Section 302 IPC – Punishment for Murder
🔹 Text of Section 302 IPC:
Whoever commits murder shall be punished with death, or imprisonment for life, and shall also be liable to fine.
🔎 Explanation:
Murder is a very serious offence defined under Section 300 IPC.
Section 302 IPC prescribes the punishment for murder.
The punishment can be:
Death sentence, or
Life imprisonment, and
The offender may also be liable to pay a fine.
✅ Practical effect:
Imposes the harshest penalty for murder.
The court decides between death or life imprisonment based on the facts, circumstances, and applicable law.
Life imprisonment means imprisonment for the remainder of the convict’s natural life unless remitted.
If you want me to explain CrPC Section 302, it actually does not exist — CrPC generally covers procedure and sections in the 200s mostly relate to procedure around trial, evidence, and complaints.
