The Gujarat High Court, led by Justice HD Suthar, ruled on Friday that celebratory firing at weddings does not constitute an attempt to murder without the intent to harm. This decision came after a revision application was filed by six individuals—Dilisinh Rathod, Paul Jon, Kishoresinh Rathod, Ajeetsinh Rathod, Krishaba Rathod, and Ashoksinh Gohil—who were charged under Section 307 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) following a 2015 incident at a wedding reception in Ahmedabad. The court noted that while the accused had opened fire in the air, there was no evidence of intent to cause injury. The ruling highlighted that mere reckless conduct is insufficient for serious criminal liability, and emphasized the necessity of establishing intent based on surrounding circumstances. While the court quashed the charges under Section 307, it upheld other charges related to the Arms Act and additional IPC offenses.
