The Commission of Sati (Prevention) Act, 1987 primarily targets the prevention of Sati and punishes those who abet, attempt, or glorify it. Section 5 of the Act punishes abetment of Sati. Section 4 of the Act punishes attempt to commit Sati. Section 6 of the Act punishes glorification of Sati. While Section 3 mentions "Punishment for commission of sati", the act of Sati involves the death of the person. The Act's penal provisions are directed at preventing the act and punishing those who facilitate or glorify it, not the deceased victim. Therefore, the "Commission of Sati" by the victim is not something that is punishable under the Act in the sense of applying a penalty to the person who commits it.
