    Question

    The offence of tampering with computer source documents is ___________.

    A.

    Non cognisable and bailable

    B.

    Cognisable and bailable

    C.

    Non cognisable and non bailable

    D.

    Cognisable and non bailable

    Correct option is B

    The correct option is  (b) Cognisable and bailable.
    Explanation
    · The offence of  tampering with computer source documents, under Section 65 of the Information Technology (IT) Act, 2000, is classified as a  cognizable and  bailable offence.
    · An offence is  cognizable if the police are authorized to arrest the suspect without a warrant.
    · An offence is  bailable if the accused person has a right to be released on bail, as the maximum punishment for this offence is imprisonment up to three years. 
    Additional Knowledge:
    · (a) Non cognisable and bailable: This is incorrect because the offence under Section 65 IT Act is a  cognisable offence, not non-cognizable.
    · (c) Non cognisable and non bailable: This is incorrect as the offence is both cognizable and bailable, not non-cognizable and non-bailable.
    · (d) Cognisable and non bailable: This is incorrect because while the offence is cognizable, it is classified as  bailable, not non-bailable.
