Which of the following sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 deals with abetment in India of offences outside India?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Section 47 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 108A IPC) deals with abetment in India of an act committed outside India. The act abroad must be one that would constitute an offence if committed in India. This makes the place of the abetment and the hypothetical criminality of the act in India central to the provision. Section 48, a new provision, covers the converse case of abetment from outside India of an act in India.
