Practice question
Conspirators carry out separately directed intentional attacks at the same place seconds apart. The acts are established as distinct; no necessary-means or special composite basis is asserted. They demand Article48 treatment solely because no long cooling-off interval occurred. Which is correct?
- No fixed lengthy interval is required to recognize the proved distinct acts
- Every attack within one minute is one physical act
- Same place necessarily establishes merger
- A long pause is a statutory element of separate liability
- A shared objective conclusively supplies Article48
