On your site, a witness comes forward to give a statement about an assault that occurred. The subject submits the report but it is written in purple ink. Can it be considered a legal document?

No. Make the subject write it again in black ink and capital letters
No. It must be in Blue, Black, or Red ink
Yes. It can be submitted as a legal document
Yes, but only if the person has signed it in the presence of a Public Officer

The correct answer is: Yes. It can be submitted as a legal document

The color of the ink used to write a witness statement for a security report doesn't determine the legality of the document. What is important is the content of the statement. As long as the statement is clearly written, is truthful and has the necessary details such as the identity of the person giving the statement, the nature of the incident witnessed, and the date and time, it can be considered a legal document. Hence, if a subject submits a report about an assault that occurred, and it is written in purple ink, it can be submitted as a legal document. There is no requirement for the statement to be written in any specific color of ink or for it to be signed in the presence of a Public Officer for it to be considered a legal document. The choice C is therefore correct.
