Section 6
⎯(1)
If a person entitled to institute a suit is, at the time from which the period of limitation is to be reckoned, a minor, or insane, or an idiot, he may institute the suit within the same period after the disability has ceased as would otherwise have been allowed from the time prescribed therefor in the third column of the Schedule.
(2)
When he is, at the time from which the period of limitation is to be reckoned, affected by two of those disabilities, or when, before his disability has ceased, he is affected by another disability, he may institute the suit within the same period after both disabilities have ceased as would otherwise have been allowed from the time so prescribed.
(3)
When his disability continues up to his death, his legal representative may institute the suit within the same period after the death as would otherwise have been allowed from the time so prescribed.
(4)
When such representative is at the date of the death affected by a disability referred to in subsection (1), subsections (1)
and (2) shall apply.
(5)
Nothing in this section shall be deemed to extend for more than three years from the cessation of the disability, or the death of the person affected thereby, the period within which any suit shall be instituted.
