Question

Which of the following is NOT correctly matched?

A.

Presumption as to documents thirty years old - Section 90 of I.E.A.

B.

Burden of proving that a person is alive who has not been heard of for seven years - Section 108 of I.E.A.

C.

Dumb witnesses - Section 119 of I.E.A.

D.

Presumption as to dowry death of I.E.A. - Section 113-A

Correct option is D


The correct match for the presumption as to dowry death is Section 113-B of the Indian Evidence Act, not Section 113-A. Section 113-A deals with the presumption as to abetment of suicide by a married woman, while Section 113-B specifically addresses dowry deaths.
Information Booster:
1. Section 90: This Section provides a presumption regarding the authenticity of documents that are over thirty years old, assuming they come from proper custody.
2. Section 108: This Section shifts the burden of proof regarding the life of a person who has not been heard of for seven years, presuming them dead unless proven otherwise.
3. Section 119: This Section allows for the testimony of witnesses who are unable to speak, using written or other modes of communication to convey their testimony.
4. Section 113-A: Deals with the presumption of abetment of suicide by a married woman within seven years of marriage, given certain circumstances.
5. Section 113-B: Specifically deals with dowry death, creating a presumption of culpability when a woman dies under suspicious circumstances related to dowry demands within seven years of marriage.
