Offences committed by body corporate
28. Where an offence under this Act is committed by a body corporate, every person who at the time of the commission of that offence was a member of that body corporate shall be deemed to be guilty of that offence unless he proves that the offence was committed without his consent or connivance, and that he exercised all such diligence to prevent the commission of that offence as he ought to have exercised having regard to the nature of his functions in such capacity and in all the circumstances. |
