Question

Under Section 362 of the Indian Penal Code, the offence of abduction may be committed with –

A.

a girl under 18 years of age

B.

a boy under 16 years of age

C.

a person of unsound mind

D.

none of the above is correct

Correct option is D

None of the above is correct because Section 362 of the Indian Penal Code defines abduction as compelling or deceiving a person to go from any place. The offence of abduction applies to any person, regardless of their age or mental state, so the options provided are not exclusive or specific to the definition under this Section.
Information Booster:
Abduction under Section 362 focuses on the action of taking or moving a person by force or deceit, without specifying age or mental condition.
Additional Knowledge:
· Girl under 18/boy under 16: Could be involved in abduction cases, but the Section does not limit the definition to these categories.
· Person of unsound mind: Also could be abducted, but again, the Section does not specifically cater to this.
