    Question

    When the medical evidence gives the age of the victim girl between 17 and 18 years but documentary evidence shows the age to be about 18 years, the advantage of the conflict will go in favor of:

    A.

    The victim girl, and she will be held to be a minor.

    B.

    The accused, and the victim girl cannot be held to be minor.

    C.

    Both accused and the victim equally.

    D.

    No advantage can be drawn by accused or victim girl.

    Correct option is B


    When documentary evidence establishes the age of the victim as 18 years, the accused benefits from the presumption of the majority as per established legal principles. Medical evidence is considered secondary in such cases.
