In the following question, out of the given alternatives, choose the best one which expresses the synonym of the underlined word. The tribunal dismissed the preliminary indictment after the emergence of exculpatory evidence, whose probative force effectively dismantled the prosecution’s circumstantial narrative and undermined its inferential coherence.
Exonerative
Exculpatory (Latin ex- “out of” + culpa “blame”) describes evidence that tends to clear a person of guilt or blame.
Exonerative means serving to exonerate — to free from blame or a charge — so it has the same meaning. The context supports this: the evidence led the tribunal to dismiss the indictment.
Tendentious means promoting a particular cause or point of view; premonitory means giving a warning in advance; duplicitous means deceitful. None means clearing of guilt.
Hence, the answer is Exonerative.
