That is not an example of my case. In my case, he who says "mr X should be killed" is not a boss. Bosses hold responsibility for the acts of the employees.
Not necessarily. If John works for Mr Smith and on his day off, without his boss's knowledge, he goes to a football match, gets in a fight and ends up killing somebody, Mr Smith has no responsibility.
Ok, so we agree. Thanks for supporting my views.
No, I am afraid I am only giving qualified support to your views. You said, "Bosses hold responsibility for the acts of the employees," and I am saying not necessarily so. In the first example I gave, by the way, in common law jurisdictions this would almost certainly constitute the offence of 'procurement of murder', as in the following case:
AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd has been charged with attempting to hire a hitman* to kill two men. An extremely gaunt and haggard-looking Rudd appeared in Tauranga District Court in New Zealand Thursday afternoon local time to face charges of attempting to procure a murder, possession of methamphetamine, possession of cannabis and threatening to kill.
