Compelled witness testimony requires answers to relevant questions while protecting such answers from criminal use, except for false evidence.
Section 132 requires a witness to answer relevant questions in civil or criminal proceedings even where an answer may incriminate the witness or expose the witness to a penalty or forfeiture. A compelled answer cannot subject the witness to arrest or prosecution, nor may it be proved against the witness in criminal proceedings, except in a prosecution for giving false evidence through that answer.
