Kidnapping means taking away a person against his/her will by force, threat or deceit. Usually, the purpose of kidnapping is to get a ransom, or for some political or other purposes etc. Section 361 of IPC explains kidnapping from lawful guardianship. According to this section, if a person takes away or entices a minor (i.e, a boy under the age of 16 years and a girl under the age of 18 years) or a person of unsound mind, away from his/her lawful guardian without the guardian’s consent, then that person commits the offence of kidnapping from lawful guardianship. Futher the word ‘take’ means cause to go or to escort or to get into possession. This means that in taking, the desire of the person being taken to be taken is missing. Enticing, on the other hand, is the act of the accused which induces the person kidnapped to go to the kidnapper, by his/her own wish. It is exciting hope or desire in a person to be taken away. Enticement is completely dependant upon the mental state of the person when the inducement happens. It is not confined to a single form of allurement and any act which is enough to allure a minor girl is enough to constitute allurement.

Culpable homicide is defined under Section 299 of the Criminal Code. Section 300 defines murder as a culpable homicide with certain distinguishing features, which are listed in clauses 1-4 of Section 300, subject to the exclusions set out in Section 300. Any culpable homicide that occurs within one of the four clauses in Section 300 is considered murder. All other cases of culpable homicide, including those that may fall under the exceptions to Section 300, shall be considered culpable homicide rather than murder. While Section 299 defines ‘culpable homicide,’ it is not exhaustive. The genus is culpable homicide, and the species is murder. All culpable homicides are murders, but not all culpable homicides are murders. So the distinction is between culpable homicide that amounts to murder and culpable homicide that does not amount to murder. The sole distinction between culpable homicide and murder is the degree of purpose and knowledge involved. The case would be classified as murder if there was a high level of purpose and knowledge. The case would be classified as responsible homicide if there was a lesser degree of purpose or knowledge. As a result, establishing categorical demarcations between culpable homicide and murder is challenging.
