AHMADI ALLY MAUNDU v REPUBLIC 1994 TLR 200

This was an appeal from a conviction for murder by the High Court. The appellant sought to rely on provocation as defence because his wife preferred ending their matrimonial differences by demanding `talakaƄ rather than proposed reconciliation. 
Held
 (i) The demand for `talaka' by the deceased did not constitute any unlawful conduct which would form a basis for legal provocation.
Case Information 
Appeal dismissed.
