ARTICULO 34.- No son punibles:
1º. El que no haya podido en el momento del hecho, ya sea por insuficiencia de sus facultades, por alteraciones morbosas de las mismas o por su estado de inconciencia, error o ignorancia de hecho no imputables, comprender la criminalidad del acto o dirigir sus acciones.
En caso de enajenación, el tribunal podrá ordenar la reclusión del agente en un manicomio, del que no saldrá sino por resolución judicial, con audiencia del ministerio público y previo dictamen de peritos que declaren desaparecido el peligro de que el enfermo se dañe a sí mismo o a los demás.
En los demás casos en que se absolviere a un procesado por las causales del presente inciso, el tribunal ordenará la reclusión del mismo en un establecimiento adecuado hasta que se comprobase la desaparición de las condiciones que le hicieren peligroso;
ARTÍCULO 68.- Padecimiento mental sobreviniente. Si durante el proceso sobreviniere un padecimiento mental que restringiere la capacidad del imputado, el juez establecerá los apoyos y los ajustes razonables que sean necesarios, incluyendo el establecimiento de plazos especiales para el desarrollo del proceso, según el momento en que se produzca, sin perjuicio de que se lleven a cabo los actos para la averiguación del hecho que no requieran su presencia o se prosiga aquél contra los demás imputados.
Se comunicará al juez en lo civil y al defensor particular o, en su defecto, al defensor público, la situación del imputado, a fin de que, en caso de ser necesario, se resuelva sobre las medidas de protección de derechos que correspondan de acuerdo a la legislación específica.
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:
(a) The person suffers from a mental disease or defect 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;
(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;
(c) The person acts reasonably to defend himself or herself or another person or, in the case of war crimes, property which is essential for the survival of the person or another person or property which is essential for accomplishing a military mission, against an imminent and unlawful use of force in a manner proportionate to the degree of danger to the person or the other person or property protected. The fact that the person was involved in a defensive operation conducted by forces shall not in itself constitute a ground for excluding criminal responsibility under this subparagraph;
(d) The conduct which is alleged to constitute a crime within the jurisdiction of the Court has been caused by duress resulting from a threat of imminent death or of continuing or imminent serious bodily harm against that person or another person, and the person acts necessarily and reasonably to avoid this threat, provided that the person does not intend to cause a greater harm than the one sought to be avoided. Such a threat may either be:
(i) Made by other persons; or
(ii) Constituted by other circumstances beyond that person's control.
