A coniontinuing offence means that, if an act or ommission on the part of an accused constitute an offence, and if that act or ommission continues from day to day, then a fresh offence is committed on everyday on which the act or ommission continues. It is a continueing breach of a duty amounting to continuing offence. AIR 1954 Patna 371 (Full Bench)
