Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Section 12 removes the "disqualification, if any, attaching to a conviction"; the finding of guilt itself stands. It leaves untouched an order to pay compensation and costs under section 5, and an offender released under section 4 can still be sentenced under section 9 if he breaks the bond.
