Distinction between Actus Reus and Causation
torts clat_ug advanced doubtYaar, CLAT ka stress bada hai ab 2nd year ka! Maine ye question 3 baar padha aur abhi bhi samajh nahi aaya. Kya aap bhi confused hain?
"X drives his car negligently, and a pedestrian gets hurt. The pedestrian sues X for damages. The car driven by X was defective, and it was also not maintained properly. In the absence of which, the accident might not have occurred. Can X be held liable for the damages?"
Actus Reus aur causation mein kya faaraak hai? Aap ka kya vichar hai? Please help. Maine lecture notes padhe hain, lekin still samajh nahi aaya. Kya yeh dono hi aatm- shakti se judi hui baatein hain?

"Agar aap Actus Reus aur Causation ka difference samajhna chahte hain, to yeh yah hai ki Actus Reus us ghatna ya karya ka reference hai jo kanooni dharmantar kisi bhi maamle mein sambandhit hai. Jabki Causation us prabhav ya parinam ke bare mein hai jo Actus Reus se aata hai, kuch nahin karne ki saansadha.
"Bhai, Actus Reus and Causation ek dhoondh-paanch nahin hain. Actus Reus woh ghatna hai jo crime ki definition karte hai, jaisa ki IPC ki sec 304 - Marne ka intentional act. Causation, ise kausal connection kehte hain, jiska matlab hai ki Actus Reus ka kya effect tha.
