Under the Criminal Investigations Act section 24, which of the following is listed as an offence?

• A. Burglary
• B. Fraud
• C. Theft
• D. Violence

Answer: (D)

Section 24 of the Criminal Investigations Act is about offences that involve violence. The key idea is that this section specifically lists violent offences—those involving harm to people—as a category with particular rules or procedures tied to them. Among the options, violence clearly fits that section’s focus, because it denotes offences that involve causing or threatening harm. Burglary, theft, and fraud are property or financial crimes and aren’t the offences singled out by this section. So the reason violence is the correct choice is that it matches the type of offence the statute explicitly lists under section 24.
