Question and options

When a registered medical practitioner examines a person accused of rape, which item is NOT separately specified as a required report particular in clauses (i)–(iv) of Section 52(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023?

  1. The name and address of the accused and of the person by whom he was brought

  2. Marks of injury, if any, on the person of the accused

  3. The description of material taken from the person of the accused for DNA profiling

  4. The general identification mark of the accused

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D - The general identification mark of the accused

Section 52(2)(i)–(iv) lists the names and addresses of the accused and of the person who brought him, the accused's age, any marks of injury, and a description of material collected for DNA profiling. A general identification mark is not separately named. Clause (v) still requires other material particulars in reasonable detail.
