Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. Divorce case.

  • A divorce case is categorized as neither criminal law nor a criminal case.
  • Instead, it falls within family law or civil law, focusing on the legal termination of a marriage and addressing matters such as child custody, alimony, and property division.
  • In contrast, options like murder, harassment for dowry, and theft are instances of criminal law cases, involving violations of criminal statutes with potential criminal charges and legal consequences.
  • Divorce, as a legal process, pertains to civil and family matters rather than criminal activities.
