36. Where an offence under this Law is committed by a body corporate, any person who, at the time of the commission of the offence, was a director, manager, secretary or other similar officer of the body corporate, or was purporting to act in any such capacity, shall be deemed to have committed the offence unless he proves —
that the offence was committed without his consent or connivance; and
that he exercised all such reasonable diligence to prevent the commission of the offence as he ought to have exercised having regard to the nature of his function in that capacity and to all circumstances.
