S.94 provides for acts to which a person is compelled by

Solution

The correct answer is (3) ( Murder and offenses against the State punishable with death). Section 32 is based on the maxim "Actus me invito factus non est meus actus" (An act done by me against my will is not my act). However, the law sets a very high bar for this "excuse." The law says that "except murder , and offenses against the State punishable with death , nothing is an offense which is done by a person who is compelled to do it by threats." Reasoning: The law operates on the principle that it is better for a person to die under threat than to take the life of an innocent person or jeopardize the safety of the entire State.
