Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

The proviso to section 12 withdraws the protection from "a person who, after his release under section 4, is subsequently sentenced for the original offence", typically on breach of the bond under section 9. Release after admonition under section 3, default in paying compensation, or a later conviction for a different offence does not by itself bring the proviso into play.
