> 35. When such an act is criminal by reason of its being done with a criminal knowledge or
intention.-Whenever an act, which is criminal only by reason of its being done with a criminal
knowledge or intention, is done by several persons, each of such persons who joins in the act with such
knowledge or intention is liable for the act in the same manner as if the act were done by him alone with
that knowledge or intention.
36. Effect caused partly by act and partly by omission.-Wherever the causing of a certain effect,
or an attempt to cause that effect, by an act or by an omission, is an offence, it is to be understood that the
causing of that effect partly by an act and partly by an omission is the same offence.
