Question

As per Section 107 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, a person who intentionally aids, by any act or illegal omission, the doing of a thing is said to ________.

The correct answer is
abet the doing of that thing

To answer this question accurately, we need to understand the specific section of the Indian Penal Code being referred to: Section 107 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.

Section 107 defines 'abetment' of a thing. It states that a person is said to abet the doing of a thing if they intentionally aid, by any act or illegal omission, in the doing of that thing.

Let's analyze the options provided:

  • abet the doing of that thing: This directly aligns with the definition provided in Section 107 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860.
  • be guilty of attempt: This is incorrect as attempt pertains to the steps taken to commit an offence, whereas abetment is about aiding or supporting an offence.
  • be liable for offence constituted: This option is misleading because abetment doesn't automatically make a person liable for the main offence. They are liable for the offence of abetment.
  • be criminal: This term is vague and does not reflect the wording or concept of abetment as per the IPC.

Therefore, the correct answer is abet the doing of that thing as per Section 107 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. This option directly matches the legal language used in the Indian Penal Code.
