Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Illustration (a) to section 3 lists the facts in issue at A's trial as A's beating B with the club, A's causing B's death by such beating, and A's intention to cause B's death. A's purchase of a lottery ticket the day before is not a fact from which liability "necessarily follows" under section 2(1)(g), so it is not a fact in issue.
