IPC NOTES FOR LLB PDF:Section 391 of Indian Penal Code defines Dacoity. There is no difference between robbery and dacoity accept in the number of offenders. Dacoity is perhaps the only offence which the legislature has made punishable at four stages that is when 5 or more persons assemble for the purpose of committing a dacoity, each of them is punishable under section 402 merely on the grounds of joining the assembly. Another stage is preparation to commit a dacoity, the person is punishable under section 399. The third stage is the stage of attempting to commit and lastly the stage of the actual commission of a robbery. Thus attempt to commit dacoity is also dacoity.
