n this case. In order to make them jointly liable for the alleged murder of Shalesh Prakash, the prosecution is relying and running it's case on the concept of "joint enterprise". "Joint enterprise" is "when two or more persons form a common intention to 
\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 p\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 
rosecute an unlawful purpose in conjunction with one another, and in the prosecution of such purpose an offence is committed, of such a nature that its commission was a probable consequence of the prosecution of such purpose, each of them is deemed to hav
\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 e\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 
 committed the offence". (Section 22, Penal Code, Chapter 17). In considering each accused, you will have to ask yourselves the following questions: Did each of them form a common intention with each other to murder the deceased? If so, did each of them a
\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 c\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 
ted together to murder the deceased? If your answer to the above questions for a particular accused was yes, and you are satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that the elements in paragraph 9(i), (ii) and (iii)(a) are satisfied, he's guilty of murder. It is i
\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 r\hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 relevant whether or not one committed a minor or major role, if they had the common intention to murder the deceased and acted together, they are each liable for murder.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24
