    “Volenti non fit Injura” means that things suffered voluntarily are not fit/deemed to be an injury or an injury cannot arise out of a voluntary act. It is one of the defences under Tort Law. Section 300 (Exception 5) of IPC embodies a principle similar to that of tort law principle ‘Volenti non fit Injuria’ as it says a person above 18 years of age when consents to his death or risks his death, it is not murder.
