Practice question
Five people act together, but only three are armed. No other band basis is established. Does the headcount alone satisfy Article 14(6)’s definition?
- Yes; any five people automatically constitute a band.
- Unarmed spectators always count as armed.
- The definition concerns total company sales.
- No; the statutory armed-malefactor threshold is not met on those facts.
- Only the group’s nickname matters.
