    that such inducement be the determining cause of the commission of the crime.

    The accused and all of the persons involved in this case were Moros of the district of Parang, of
    which district the accused was headman. He ordered certain of his followers and dependents to
    go out, seize and bring before him one S. This order was obeyed and S. was brought to the
    house of the accused and there bound and detained until night. Accused then ordered his
    dependents to take S. to an old Chinese cemetery, an isolated place, and there kill him. He
    reinforced his orders as headman by asserting that he had an order f from the governor that S.
    should be executed. In obedience to these orders and under this representation S. was taken to
    the cemetery and killed. That the accused was guilty of the crime of murder by inducement.
