Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Wrongful confinement under Section 127(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 340 IPC) is the wrongful restraint of a person so as to prevent him from proceeding beyond certain circumscribing limits. Restraining a person within a place, or compelling him in a particular direction, with an ulterior motive therefore amounts to "wrongful confinement", not "custodial imprisonment".
