Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Under Explanation 3 to s.46 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly s.108 IPC), abetment is possible even where the person abetted, such as a person of unsound mind or an infant, is legally incapable of committing the offence himself, because the abettor's own guilty state of mind is what is punished.
