Section 110 of IPC – “Punishment of abetment if person abetted does act with a different intention from that of abettor.”
Whoever abets the commission of an offence shall, if the person abetted does the act with a different intention or knowledge from that of the abettor, be punished with the punishment provided for the offence which would have been committed if the act had been done with the intention or knowledge of the abettor and with no other.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
If the person abetted does the act with a different intention or knowledge from that of the abettor, the latter will be punished as if the offence had been done with his (i.e., the abettor’s) intention or knowledge (Section 110). The liability of the person abetted is not affected by this section.
