Explanation:

Here’s how it actually works:

- Section 5 of the Probation of Offenders Ordinance, 1960, is what you’re looking for. It gives courts the authority to issue a probation order, instead of sending someone to prison, in certain cases.

- Let’s break down the options:

- Option 1 (4(2)): This talks about certain conditional powers but not the main probation order.

- Option 2 (4(3)): This is about procedure and restrictions, not the main power to order probation.

- Option 3 (4(4)): Deals with specific technicalities—not about granting probation.

- Option 4 (5): This is spot on. Section 5 clearly lays out the court’s power to make a probation order where it thinks fit.

- So, Section 5 is the section that handles the court’s power to place offenders on probation.
