Intent is a thing which exists in a person’s mind. The proof of it may be given either by direct evidence of what the person himself says as to his purpose for doing a thing, or by inference from the nature and manner of the act he did and section 11 (1), (2) and (3) of Act 29 provide the guide for ascertaining a person’s intention or purpose for doing an act.
