Come on guys, solve it for me..common intention

@ As per my knowledge Section 34 talks abt offence committed by persons in furtherence of common intention and here needs companionship of two or more than two unlike as in section 149 where no. of persons is 5. And  if offence done by one e.g.(shoot someone) and his two friends are outside for the purpose of awaring the main accused then all will be equally liable for the offence of murder. Rule of evidence which i thinks is in sec 34 through evidence the prosecution has to ruled out the liability of joint offenders.

Dear Aditya,

in the most simplified language sec-34 can be understood as follows;

in case of sec-149 it applies to active participation of all persons in a "unlawful assembly"

in case of sec-34 it apples to association and not participation, the association can be active or passive, the most important aspect to establish sec-34 is knowledge and association 

sec-149 mens rea is important while in sec - 34 application of offence is irresprective of mens rea..

viz...take in case of conspiracy..the conspiratory may not presonnally and physically be present during the commission of offence but he is liable for the all the outcome of acts during commission of offence

while in case of sec 149 physical presence is required to be established to prove commission of offence.

I hope this might solve ur query

if not i will try to explain in even more simplified way

take care..god bless
