With the consent of the child’s parents or guardian, which purpose attracts the section 41 POCSO exception to sections 3 to 13?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Section 41 of POCSO excludes sections 3 to 13 for medical examination or treatment undertaken with the consent of the child's parents or guardian. Both the medical purpose and the specified consent are necessary for this exception. Police investigation, judicial proceedings or recording evidence do not qualify merely by their procedural character.
