Choose your answer
A is accused before the Court of Session of attempting to murder a police officer whilst on his trial before B, a Sessions Judge.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
This tracks illustration (c) to Section 127 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (formerly section 121 of the Indian Evidence Act): the attempted murder does not concern the Judge's conduct in court as such, so "B can be examined as to what occurred" in his presence.
