NSManagedObject is not fault but app crashing on accessing it on backgroung thread

I am facing an issue in which NSManagedObject is not showing issues on MainThread but on accessing same NSManagedObject in background thread, it is showing error: error: Execution was interrupted, reason: EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_I386_INVOP, subcode=0x0)

I actually not having any idea that why it is happening.

I am fetching this NSManagedObject by mainContext using peform{} block method. So this returned object works fine on main thread but on accessing this object in background thread, i am getting crash.

I don't know clearly that what extra information should I provided to describe my problem.

If anyone have any idea about my problem, then let me know about this.

Managed objects (and contexts) can only be accessed from specific threads. If you want to access a managed object from a background thread you need to create a context with private queue concurrency, and then use the performBlock: method. 

let bgContext = NSManagedObjectContext(concurrencyType: privateQueueConcurrencyType)
bgContext.perform {
    // code which accesses managed object
}

If you need to take a specific entity from the main thread and access it in the background, you can take the object's managedObjectID from the main thread and then call existingObject(with:) in the background block to get the same entity in the background context.
