CHAPTER II- CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY
Article 18 Criminal act committed when inebriated
A person is not excluded from criminal responsibility if he commits the act while inebriated.
When the state of inebriation is caused in incidental circumstances and brings about the lowering of mental balance, the court considers this circumstance for mitigating the sentence. When the person is intentionally inebriated in order to commit a criminal act, the court considers this circumstance for aggravating the sentence.
The above mentioned rules are also applied when the criminal act is committed under the effect of narcotics or other stimulants.
1. In addition to other grounds for excluding criminal responsibility provided for in this Statute, a person shall not be criminally responsible if, at the time of that person's conduct:
(b) The person is in a state of intoxication that destroys that person's capacity to appreciate the unlawfulness or nature of his or her conduct, or capacity to control his or her conduct to conform to the requirements of law, unless the person has become voluntarily intoxicated under such circumstances that the person knew, or disregarded the risk, that, as a result of the intoxication, he or she was likely to engage in conduct constituting a crime within the jurisdiction of the Court;
