SECTION I - ENGLISH
Direction: Read the following carefully and then answer these questions based on what is stated or implied therein:
The Emperor had inherited a peaceful and prosperous kingdom at a young age after the untimely death of his father. A few months later a man arrived at court. He stated that he was from a far off land and had the gift of foresight. He impressed the Emperor with his witty remarks and was appointed a courtier. The Emperor and those at court all enjoyed hearing accounts of his travels. One day the newly appointed minister said, Your Majesty, you are destined for great things. It is written in the stars. I have learnt the art of fourtune telling. DO not be content with your kingdom alone. Travel, see the world and conquer. There are many who are oppressed. They will bless you for rescuing them from the tyranny of their rulers. The Emperor was stunned to hear this but he refused to discuss the matter at the time. The courtiers too were astonished to hear this and began debating among themselves. It is true, they said, Our Emperors father was a great warrior and he ruled wisely. Perhaps there is truth in this. So the newly appointed courtier shrewdly planted the idea of waging war against other kingdom at court. After hearing several repeated arguments in favour of this idea the Emperor finally agreed. HE was a young man and a battle seemed to be exciting and a adventure. So the newly appointed minister planned the first campaign against a smaller neighbouring kingdom. Te Emperor knew the ruler was cruel and flet justified in waging war against him. Having the superior army he easily defeated te king. Everyone celebrated. But the campaign did not stop there. With every victory the new minister would urge the Emperor on to the next battle. The soldiers grew tired after over two years at war but did not complain out of respect and loyalty to their ruler. Meanwhile the situation in his kingdom began to deteriorate. With no one to look after the daily administration and to resolve disputes, signs of neglect began to be seen. The Emperor was no longer bothered if he was freeing the oppressed when he attacked a kingdom. He would plunder their riches to fund his wars. The new minister who was in charge of these funds kept a large part for himself and grew richer. AN old man who had been a minister in the Emperors fathers court grew worried and decided to do something about this situation. A few days later when the Emperor was out riding in the forest he suddenly saw the old man. He greeted him like an old friend and inquired what he was doing there. The man pointed to two owls in the trees. I am listening to their conversation. What are they saying? the Emperor asked unbelieving. They are negotiating the marriage of their children. The first owl wants to know whether the other will be gifting his daughter fifty villages on her wedding day. To which the second one replied that he would have to gift her one hundred and fifty as the villages were in ruins and as such were worthless but with the Emperor as ruler there would be many such villages.

Weather-related disasters have been constant over the last ten years. China is the country where the number of people killed by natural disasters is the highest.

Law Prep Tutorial / Test Code - LPTSM-006-109 that instant death to that person will otherwise be the consequence: Provided the person doing the act did not of his own accord place himself in the situation by which he became subject to such constraint. Facts: A tells B that he will kill his five year old son unless B agrees to commit theft for him. If B does so will he have committed a crime?

Facts: In a case, there was bad blood between the two factions and they were involved in number of incidents and criminal proceedings. On one day, deceased (belonging to one faction) was followed by members of other faction. When the deceased, a 55-year old man, tried to ran away, he was not allowed by the accused who indiscriminately pounded the legs and arms of his by heavy sticks and continued the beating till he became unconscious. The accused than left the spot. The doctor found as many as 19 injuries out of which no less than 9 were (internally) found to be grievous. The doctor gave the opinion that the injuries were cumulatively sufficient to cause death in the ordinary course of nature. Issue: The offence committed is murder or culpable homicide.

When the servants of the deceased they were kept at bay by the superior force of the accused and their associates. Consequently, death of the deceased occurred. Issue: Murder of culpable homicide.

(b) It is not culpable homicide too because it is nowhere evident that the very action of the accused to set the house of the deceased on fire, resulted in to his death. (c) It is murder because in the pursuance of the conspiracy to commit murder of M, the accused lock the deceased and set the room on fire and stop the servants and villagers to come to his rescue.

Issue: What offence, if any has been committed? (a) P is guilty of murder (b) P is guilty of culpable homicide. (c) P is not guilty of homicide by rash or negligent act because Section 304-A does not apply where the death has arisen from any other supervening act or interventions which could not have been anticipated.

Facts: Sheela informed her friend Roma that her husband Ramu was staying in a local 5 star hotel. Roma took her car and left for the hotel with a revolver.

Roma became angry and fired a shot at her husband from her revolver, but it missed and killed the lady sitting with Ramu. Roma pleaded the defence of grave and sudden provocation. Issue: Whether the accused is guilty of murder? (a) The accused is not guilty of murder as she acted under sudden and grave provocation. (b) The accused is guilty of murder because the provocation was grave but not sudden, because the action of the accused was deliberate and premeditated. (c) She is guilty of culpable homicide because no wife can tolerate the adulterous character of her husband. (d) None of these 109. Facts: A left his car engine running on a busy street when he stepped out for a minute to purchase a bottle of water from a shop on the side.

Law Prep Tutorial / Test Code - LPTSM-006-109 111. Fact: G, a 13 year old girl, was allowed by her father F to taken away by relatives of her elder sister to her home to look after her elder sister for some time. After some time F received the information that these relative have got G married to A. F lodged a report with the police that his daughter has been kidnapped by the relatives of Gs elder sister and she has been forced by them to have illicit intercourse with A. Police recovered G from As house after a month. G deposed that A had sexual intercourse with her many a times. However medical report states that no injuries exist on Gs body. In a charge of rape against A, he pleads that G has consented to such act as in indicative of her staying at his house for one long month. Can A succeed? Issue: What offence, if any, has been committed? (a) A is not guilty (b) A cannot succeed because sexual intercourse with a girl/woman with or without her consent when she is under 16 years amounts to rape. [Sc. 375, cl. (vi)]. In such a case medical evidence showing that the girl was habituated to sexual intercourse and that there were no signs of rape would also be of no help if intercourse by the accused with the girl is proved. (c) F is guilty who allowed a minor girl of 13 years of age to be taken by the relatives (d) None of these 112. Facts: A gave his watch for repair to B. A dispute occurred between the two over the extra parts replaced by B, which were not included in the earlier estimate. B was unwilling to deliver the watch unless extra payment was made. In the course of heated argument A took out a knife, seeing which B did not object to the watch being delivered without excess charges. Issue: What offence, if any has been, committed? (a) A is not liable for any offence. Because the watch belong to him and he took it away (b) A has committed the offence of extortion (c) B is liable for cheating. (d) None of these 113. Principle: A criminal act requires a physical action (actus reus) accompanied by a positive or negative criminal intention (mens rea). Gross negligence is a form of mens rea. Facts: It is a well known fact that one should not run with sharp objects in ones hand. A was running with a knife when he slipped and the knife went through his stomach. Luckily, A survived, despite his stupidity. While he was recuperating in police, the police arrested him for attempt to commit suicide. Has he committed a crime? (a) Yes, he should have foreseen that his act would result in danger (b) No, because he did not intend to cause hurt to himself (c) Maybe, it depends on the details of the case (d) No, because most people who commit suicide take pills or hang themselves, and this was not an incident of that nature. 114. Principle: Negligence is a tort. Negligence involves the breach of a reasonable duty of care causing injury to the victim. Facts: A is representing B in a court case. A is colour blind and turns up in court one day wearing a tie that doesnt match his shirt. That particular judge has a reputation for being very finicky about appearance and immediately decides the case against B because of As attire. Has A been negligent? (a) No. His colour blindness is a defence. (b) No. His duty of care to his client is with regard to adequate legal preparation and handling of the case. His duty does not extend to extraneous factors like this.

Law Prep Tutorial / Test Code - LPTSM-006-109 (c) Yes. His duty of care to the client extends to all matters relating to the case. When he knew about this tendency of the judge, he breached his duty in not accounting for it. (d) No. This is clearly illegal. Judges cant decide cases on the basis of clothes. 115. Principle: Courts must take statutes as they find them, they cannot correct legislative errors. As far as possible, however, where a legislative error is blatant, they should try and reduce its impact on the people. But these efforts should not extend to changing the letter of the law. Facts: Indian courts face many cases where, for many reasons, somebodys property is attached and sold to cover his debts. However, in many of these cases, it is later discovered that some third party had an interest in the property. To alleviate the plight of these third parties, various policy and legislative changes have been introduced. Section 89 of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) provides that any such third party may apply to set aside (meaning cancel) the sale by depositing 5% of the value of the property within 30 days of the sale. Article 127 of the Limitation Act provides that any such application for setting aside the sale must be made within 30 days of the sale. The legislature recognized, however, that it might be difficult for people to raise such a large amount of money in such a short time, and amended Article 127 to provide a 60 day period. Section 89, however, was left unamended, and still allows only 30 days for making the payment. This has left many of these third parties in a very sticky situations because under the court rules framed by the Supreme Court, any deposit of money without accompanying proof of the application to which it relates must be confiscated. This rule has evolved to prevent litigants from bribing court officials. Can the courts do anything to ameliorate the plight of the third parties? (a) No. (b) Yes. They can bring the matter to the attention of the legislature. (c) Yes. They can amend the court rules to accept the payment pending proof of the application. (d) Maybe. Inadequate information. 116. Principle: Words in statutory provisions should be interpreted in the context of the provision as whole. Facts: One legislation provides: A person shall be disqualified for being chosen as, and for being a member of a Municipal Board if he is in arrears in the payment of municipal tax or other dues in excess of one years demand. Mangoo was in arrears in the payment of municipal tax in excess of one years demand at the time of filing of nominations, but made the payment before the date of poll and was elected. His election was set aside and he contended in the Supreme Court that the relevant date was the date of poll and that a notice of demand was not served on him and so he was not disqualified. Is this valid? (a) Yes. Until the arrears have been demanded by the authorities, the disqualification does not arise. (b) No. The word demand may have several meanings. The provision does not use it as a verb meaning to ask for, but instead as an indicator of a state of owing money for municipal taxes, etc. (c) Yes. The disqualification, such as it was, was removed before the election. The disqualification applies to being elected, or being a member. Before either of those happened, he had cleared his dues. There is no disqualification on standing for election. (d) No. Such a person cannot be trusted with the governance of the country. 117. Principle: All reservations to the jurisdiction of the I.C.J. made by any country may be used against it by another state. Facts: U.S.A. and Nicaragua are embroiled in a dispute before the I.C.J.. The US statement of accession to the I.C.J. reserves the right to withdraw from the jurisdiction of the I.C.J. with six months notice. The Nicaraguan statement says nothing regarding withdrawal. The U.S.A. is losing the case and wants to withdraw from the jurisdiction of the I.C.J.. It argues that the absence of a withdrawal clause in the Nicaraguan

20 Law Prep Tutorial (P) Ltd., This paper is a part of copyrighted material, any replica by any means may invite penal action.

Law Prep Tutorial / Test Code - LPTSM-006-109 statement of accession implies that Nicaragua has inserted a reservation allowing it to withdraw without notice, and this may therefore be used by the U.S.A. against Nicaragua. Is this argument valid? (a) Yes. The U.S.A. is entitled to invoke Nicaraguan reservations against it. (b) No. This is not a reservation. (c) No. States must be forced to decide whether or not they are going to accede to the jurisdiction of the I.C.J. before cases are decided. (d) Yes. The I.C.J. is not a real court in any case. 118. Principle: Delegated legislation is the allocation of legislative powers to the executive by the legislature. Delegated legislature must not amount to a cession of legislative power, but must instead be a recognition of the enhanced ability of the executive to make detailed rules within a broader policy framework specified by the legislature. Facts: The newly enacted Indian Drug Control Act allows the executive omnibus powers to define prohibited drugs. Is this a valid exercise of delegated legislation? (a) Yes (b) No (c) Inadequate information (d) This is not delegated legislation 119. Principles: I. Every citizen has a right to live with human dignity. II. Human dignity means more than a mere animal existence. Facts: The State Government was running a Care Home for underprivileged women. This Care Home received insufficient funds from the State Government. Due to some renovation, these women had to be shifted to another building for a period of one year. They had to stay in an old ruined building with insufficient and poor quality food. A, a public-spirited person, filed a PIL in the Court stating a violation of the fundamental right to life and human dignity. Suggested Decisions: (a) There has been a violation of the fundamental right to life and human dignity. (b) There has not been a violation of the fundamental right to life and human dignity. Suggested Reasons: (i) The Care Home did not receive adequate funds from the State Government. (ii) The State Government did not provide proper accommodation to these women. (iii) The original building was undergoing renovation and the old building was only a temporary arrangement. (iv) The women had to stay in an old ruined house with insufficient and poor quality food. Your decision with the reason: (a) (a) (iv) (b) (b) (iii) (c) (a) (ii) (d) (b) (i)

120. Principle: Every citizen has a right to life and personal liberty. Facts: Lal Bahadur Shastri Medical College is a Government-run college. There was a bomb blast in the State, which left many people injured. The college decided to hold a blood donation camp to help those injured in the blast. As people were injured on a large scale and needed blood, the college made blood donation compulsory for all its students. A, a student of the college, approaches the Court, claiming a violation of his fundamental right to life and personal liberty due to such compulsion.
