การใช้ผู้ต้องพึ่งพาผู้ใช้เพราะเหตุป่วยเจ็บในการกระทำความผิด

Abstract

Thai Criminal law helps to protect and suppress crime, specifying “principal” and “instigator” that persons jointly committing offence are “principals”(Sections 83 and 84).  Person causing someone to commit offence by employment, compulsion, threat, hire, asking as favor or instigation, is an instigator. If suchperson commits offence, instigator is punished as principal because it is crime jointly committed by “principal”.

Person dependingupon instigator due to sickness is subjectto one-half of punishment of such offence. If instigator changes to be co-offender, punishment as principal shall apply only. This is overlapping of law on punishment.
