Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 482(4) BNSS (formerly s.438(4) CrPC) bars anticipatory bail for offences under section 65 and section 70(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (rape of a woman under sixteen or under twelve years of age, and gang rape of a woman under eighteen), so it does not apply "in case of an arrest of a person for an offence punishable under Section 65(1) of the BNS". Sections 67, 68 and 70(1) BNS are not excluded.
