co-operates in the commission of that offence by doing any one of those acts, either singlyor jointly with any other person, commits that offence. | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
Illustration s. | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
(a) A and B agree to murder Z by severally and at different times giving him small doses | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
of poison. A and B administer the poison according to the agreement with intent to murder Z.Z dies from the effects the several doses of poison so administered to him. Here A and Bintentionally cooperate in the commission of murder and as each of them does an act bywhich the death is caused, they are both guilty of the offence though their acts are separate. | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
(b) A and B are joint jailors, and as such have the charge of Z, a prisoner, alternatively | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
for six hours at a time.

B, without collusion or co-operation with A, illegally omits to supply Z with food,knowing that he is likely thereby to cause Z’s death. Z dies of hunger. B is guilty of murder,but, as A did not co-operate with B. A is guilty only of an attempt to commit murder. | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
(9) Where severalpersons are engaged or concerned in the commission of a criminal | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
act, they may be guilty of different offences by means of that act. | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
Illustration . | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
A attacks Z under such circumstances of grave provocation that his killing of Z would | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
be only culpable homicide not amounting to murder. B, having ill-will towards Z and intending5 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
