Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 13(2) lists grounds available only to a wife, such as "Pre-Act bigamous marriage of the husband.", "Husband guilty of rape, sodomy, and bestiality." and "Repudiation of marriage." "Cruelty by the husband." is a general ground under s.13(1) available to either spouse, so it is not a ground under s.13(2).
