Section 65 - Abetment of murder

The general provisions of Part One with respect to abetment are, in their application of the purposes of this Chapter, subject to the special provision, namely, that where a person commands the killing of another person, knowing that the killing will be unlawful, then, although the criminal offence of the person commanded is reduced to manslaughter, or to an attempt to commits manslaughter, by the belief of being under a legal duty to obey the command, the person giving the command commits the same criminal offence as if the person commanded had not personally believed to be under a legal duty to obey the command.
