Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Under the Explanation to Section 435 BNSS (formerly CrPC section 394), 'near relative', for the purpose of seeking leave to appeal after an accused's death, means only a parent, spouse, lineal descendant, brother or sister, so an uncle does not fall within that definition even though the other listed relations do.
