Explanation
Section 76 of the Pakistan Penal Code (PPC) deals with Acts done by mistake of fact, believing oneself bound by law.
The full text of the section states: "Nothing is an offense which is done by a person who is, or who by reason of a mistake of fact and not by reason of a mistake of law in good faith believes himself to be, bound by law to do it".
This provides a "general exception" to criminal liability in such specific circumstances, such as a police officer mistakenly but in good faith arresting the wrong person while executing a court order.
