Indian Penal Code,1860  - Section 302 , Juvenile Justice (Care And Protection of Children) Act, 2000  - Section 20 , Section 17 , Section 16 , Section 15

Murder - The report states that on the basis of the oral as well as documentary evidence, it is established that the date of birth of accused Kalu @ Amit is 14/10/2023 and at the time of the registration of FIR dated 7/4/2024 he was about 17 years, 5 months and 23 days' old - Thus, accused Kalu @ Amit was a juvenile when the offence was committed - We have no reason to disbelieve the report submitted by the Additional Sessions Judge, Rewari, which is based on oral as well as documentary evidence - Once it is held that accused Kalu @ Amit was a juvenile, when the offence was committed, the law must take its course and he must be given the benefit of the Juvenile Act.
