Conspiracy

(1) If two or more persons agree to commit or abet a crime, or act together with a common purpose in committing or abetting a crime, whether with or without any previous concert 36 or deliberation, each of them is guilty of conspiracy to commit or abet that crime, as the case may be. (2) If a person abets the commission of a crime by another person, and such other person in any manner assents to the abetment, each of them is guilty of conspiracy to commit such crime, although it be not a part of the design of either of them that the person abetting the other should take any part in or towards the preparing for or committing such crime. (3) A person within the jurisdiction of the courts can be guilty of conspiracy by agreeing with another person who is beyond the jurisdiction for the commission or abetment of any crime to be committed by them or either of them, or any other person, either within or beyond the jurisdiction, and for the purposes of this subsection as to a crime to be committed beyond the jurisdiction, “crime” means any act which if done within the jurisdiction would be a crime under this Code or under any other law. (4) A person shall not be guilty of conspiracy to commit or abet any crime if he is an intended victim of that crime. (5) A person shall not be guilty of conspiracy to commit or abet any crime or crimes if the only other person or persons with whom he agrees are (both initially and at all times during the currency of the agreement) persons of any one or more of the following descriptions, that is to say– (a) his spouse; (b) a person exempted from criminal liability under section 25 (1); (c) an intended victim of that crime or each of those crimes.
