Under section 119 of the BSA, which of the following may the Court presume?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Section 119 lets the Court presume facts likely to have happened in the common course of natural events and human conduct, and illustration (b) to section 119 says it may presume "That an accomplice is unworthy of credit, unless he is corroborated in material particulars". The other options reverse illustrations (g), (c) and (h), under which the presumptions run against the withholding party, in favour of consideration, and against the person who refuses to answer.
