Murder defined as culpable homicide with intent or knowledge of probable fatal harm, subject to statutory exceptions. Murder is culpable homicide committed with intent to cause death, intent to cause bodily injury known likely to cause death, intent to inflict injury sufficient in ordinary course to cause death, or by knowingly doing an act imminently dangerous and likely to cause death without excuse. Five exceptions convert such killings to culpable homicide not amounting to murder where there is grave and sudden provocation, bona fide excess in private defence, good faith excess by public servants in discharge of duty, sudden fight without undue advantage, or voluntary consent to risk of death by a competent adult.
