  1. Oral testimonies only

  2. Only digital files

  3. Any written thing capable of being made evidence

  4. Evidence that cannot be physically handled

The correct answer is: Any written thing capable of being made evidence

Documentary evidence refers to any written or recorded evidence that can be used in a court of law. This can include things like letters, contracts, receipts, and photographs, as well as digital files like emails, text messages, and social media posts. Option A and B are incorrect because they limit the definition to only oral testimony or digital files, respectively. Option D is also incorrect because documentary evidence does not have to be physical and can include electronic forms. Therefore, the most comprehensive and accurate option is C.
