In the BNSS definition of a warrant-case, the term-of-imprisonment threshold is imprisonment exceeding how many years, in addition to the death and life-imprisonment categories?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Section 2(1)(z) defines a warrant-case to include an offence punishable with death, life imprisonment or imprisonment for a term exceeding "Two years", not "Three years", "Four years" or "Five years". Exactly two years does not meet the imprisonment-term limb of that definition.
