Singapore Journal of Legal Studies, 560-589.http://law.nus.edu.sg/sjls/index.htmlhttp://hdl.handle.net/1828/7830On an objective interpretation of section 300(c) of the Penal Code, an offender may be convicted of murder, and the death penalty imposed, if he or she intentionally inflicts even a minor injury, which happens to cause death. This article defends the view that the objective approach is indefensible both legally and theoretically, and offers in its place a qualified subjective approach, which imposes liability under section 300(c) only where the offender intends to inflict what is subjectively known to be a serious injury that might possibly cause death.enArticleFaculty of Law
