A consent is not such a consent as
is intended by any section of this Sanhita,—.
(a) if the consent is given by a person under fear of injury, or under a misconception of fact, and
if the person doing the act knows, or has reason to believe, that the consent was given in consequence
of such fear or misconception; or.
(b) if the consent is given by a person who, from unsoundness of mind, or intoxication, is unable
to understand the nature and consequence of that to which he gives his consent; or.
(c) unless the contrary appears from the context, if the consent is given by a person who is under
twelve years of age.
