How does Section 98 address the right of private defence against the act of a person of unsound mind, etc.?
Section 98 specifies that when an act which would otherwise be a certain offence is not that offence due to factors like youth, lack of maturity of understanding, unsoundness of mind, or intoxication of the person doing that act, every person has the same right of private defence against that act as he would have if the act were that offence. The section provides illustrations for better understanding. [Chapter 4, Section 98]
