Section 37 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012 allows the presence of which persons during in-camera trial?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Section 37 requires the Special Court to try cases "in camera and in the presence of the parents of the child or any other person in whom the child has trust or confidence". The press and the public are kept out, and the parents or trusted person are expressly allowed in, so the hearing is not limited to court officers.
