Himachal Pradesh High Court upholds bus driver's 304A conviction, rejects Section 81 'lesser harm' defence
Justice Rakesh Kainthla dismissed Dalel Singh's revision against concurrent convictions under Sections 279, 337 and 304A IPC, holding that swerving a bus to save one cyclist while crushing two motorcyclists cannot be sheltered by Section 81 of the Indian Penal Code.
