Correct Answer: Testimony


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .

Allegation: An allegation is an accusation, which is sometimes true and sometimes not.

Testimony: It means a formal statement that something is true.

While both involve making statements, an allegation suggests a claim that may or may not be supported by evidence, whereas testimony implies a formal statement given with authority or credibility, often backed by evidence.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Incriminating: It denotes providing evidence that somebody is guilty of a crime
  • Designed: It denotes making a drawing of how something will be made.
  • Tactics: It means the particular method you use to achieve something.
