A plants jewels in Z’s box intending their discovery to cause Z to be convicted of theft. Which offence does the illustration to BNS section 228 expressly identify?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Illustration (a) to section 228 identifies planting jewels to cause a false theft conviction as "Fabricating false evidence". An actual conviction is not required, so "No offence unless Z is actually convicted" is wrong, and placing jewels in a box does not create a false document for forgery or satisfy every element of cheating.
