Introduction:
Abetment means to aid, advance, assist, help and promote. If a
person commits a crime by encouraging or inciting another
person it is called abetment or if a person knows that by his
encouragement one person can kill another person, that will be
considered as abetment. Suppose a man is walking away, Saidy
tells Mizan that the man is very bad and he has done bad
things. He does not have the right to survive in this world. You
must kill him. If Mizan kills the man with the encouragement of
Saidy, then it will be considered as abetment.

Liability of abettor when one act abetted and different
act done
Liability of abettor when one act abetted and different act done
111. When an act is abetted and a different act is done, the
abettor is liable for the act done, in the same manner and to

act done was a probable consequence of the abetment, and
was committed under the influence of the instigation, or with
the aid or in pursuance of the conspiracy which constituted the
abetment.

him poison for that purpose. The child, in consequence of the
instigation, by mistake puts the poison into a food of Y, which is

influence of A's instigation, and the act done was under the
circumstances a probable consequence of the abetment, A is
liable in the same manner and to the same extent as if he had.
