CRIMINAL OFFENCE
Necessary Defence (Self-Defence)
Article 24
(1) An act committed in necessary defence is not considered a criminal offence.
(2) A defence is considered to be necessary if it is absolutely necessary for the defender to avert a coinciding or direct and imminent illicit attack from himself or from another, and which is proportionate to the attack.
(3) If the perpetrator exceeds the limits of necessary defence, the punishment can be reduced, and if the excess occurs due to strong irritation or fright caused by the attack, the punishment can be remitted.
