<h1>Abetment under Section 56 of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita: Penalties for instigation or failure to prevent non-committed offences.</h1> Under Section 56 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, abetment of an offence punishable with imprisonment incurs penalties even if the offence is not committed. If no specific punishment is provided, the abettor may face imprisonment up to one-fourth of the maximum term for the offence, a fine, or both. If the abettor or the person abetted is a public servant obligated to prevent the offence, the punishment may extend to one-half of the maximum term, along with a fine. Illustrations clarify that instigation or failure to prevent an offence, even if not executed, results in liability.
