Under the Probation of Offenders Act, Pre-sentence Report is prepared by

  • A.Police officer
  • B.Prosecution officer
  • C.Probation officer
  • D.Prison officer

Answer: C

Under the Probation of Offenders Act, the pre-sentence report is prepared by the probation officer, who inquires into the offender's character, antecedents and home surroundings for the court.

The police officer investigates the offence. The prosecution officer presents the state's case. The prison officer deals with inmates. None of them prepares the pre-sentence report. The court may call for it before deciding whether to release the offender on probation of good conduct instead of sentencing him.
