Details

The expression 'same transaction' has not been defined [section 235 of Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898], but judicial pronounce­ments have set forth a test for determining when various acts committed by an accused consti­tute same transaction. The real and subs­tantial test for determining whether several offences are connected together so as to form one transaction depends upon whether they are so related to one another in point of purpose or as cause and effect as to constitute one continuous action.
