Consider the passage given below and answer the question: Confession under section 24 of the Indian Evidence Act, implies an assertion made by blamed individual which is proposed to prove against him to establish a crime. The Supreme Court of India has observed that the confession should either concede concerning the offense or anyway, the real factors that comprise the offense. The admission of gravely incriminating fact, even conclusively incriminating fact isn't a confession itself. The assertion that contains self-exculpatory or other matter can't amount to a confession, in the event that the exculpatory assertion is of similar facts which, if valid, would negative the offense claimed to be admitted. The assertion which when read all in all is of exculpatory character and in which the detainee denies his culpability isn't confession, and can't be utilized in evidence to prove this liability.

Which of the following is NOT considered as Confession?

When it is made to the court itself. when it is made to anybody outside the court. conversation to oneself and overheard by another. None of the above

None of the above

A confession may occur in many forms. When it is made to the court itself then it will be called judicial confession, and when it is made to anybody outside the court, it will be called extra-judicial confession. It may even consist of conversation to oneself, which may be produced in evidence if overheard by another.
