If the act
for which the abettor is liable under the last preceding section is committed in addition to the act abetted,
and constitute a distinct offence, the abettor is liable to punishment for each of the offences.
Illustration
A instigates B to resist by force a distress made by a public servant. B, in consequence, resists that distress. In offering the
resistance, B voluntarily causes grievous hurt to the officer executing the distress. As B has committed both the offence of
resisting the distress, and the offence of voluntarily causing grievous hurt, B is liable to punishment for both these offences; and,
if A knew that B was likely voluntarily to cause grievous hurt in resisting the distress A will also be liable to punishment for each
of the offences.
