Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

The proviso to section 23(2) of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (formerly section 27 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872) requires information from a person accused of an offence in police custody and permits only the part distinctly related to the fact discovered to be proved. Being an accused without custody, or custody alone without the required accused status, is not the stated statutory combination. It does not render the whole police confession admissible.
