How does Section 100 extend the right of private defence of the body to causing death?
Section 100 specifies that the right of private defence of the body extends, under the restrictions mentioned in the last preceding section (Section 99), to the voluntary causing of death or of any other harm to the assailant. This extension is applicable if the offence, which occasions the exercise of the right, is of certain enumerated descriptions, such as assault reasonably causing apprehension of death or grievous hurt, assault with the intention of committing rape, and others.
