\nThe offence of mischief by fire or explosive substance with intent to destroy a house (Section 436 IPC) is a serious offence. As per the First Schedule of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (CrPC), this offence is classified as Cognizable, Non-bailable, Triable by Court of Session, and Non-compoundable. Therefore, the statement that it is a Non-cognizable offence is incorrect.
\n<\/section>\n
\n– Section 436 IPC deals with mischief by fire or explosive substance intending to destroy a house, etc.
\n– The punishment under Section 436 is imprisonment for life or imprisonment for 10 years and fine (Statement A is correct).
\n– Classification under CrPC: Cognizable, Non-bailable, Triable by Court of Session, Non-compoundable.
\n<\/section>\n
\nStatement A correctly lists the punishment. Statement C correctly states it is triable by the Court of Sessions. Statement D correctly states it is non-compoundable. Statement B incorrectly states it is non-cognizable; it is a cognizable offence, meaning a police officer can arrest without a warrant.
