Which one of the following pairs of Section and Clause with regard to the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 is not correctly matched ?

Option D is incorrectly matched. Section 114 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, provides that the Court may presume the existence of certain facts which it thinks likely to have happened, regard being had to the common course of natural events, human conduct, and public and private business (e.g., possession of stolen goods). The provision regarding the presumption of general exceptions under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) is actually contained in Section 105 of the Act, which places the burden of proving that the circumstances of the case fall within any general or special exception upon the accused.

• Section 113A: Deals with the presumption of abetment of suicide by a married woman within seven years of marriage.
• Section 114A: Deals with the presumption of absence of consent in certain prosecutions for rape.
• Section 112: Deals with birth during marriage as conclusive proof of legitimacy.
