Answer: "C:

Explanation:

Proof beyond a reasonable doubt is a stage at which the judge is very sure that an offense was actually committed by an accused ,based on solid evidences.

A reasonable doubt level is the stage in prosecution where the prosecutor is not able to establish with facts that an accuse is guilty. So to be declared guilty , the prosecutor should go beyond this stage with enough evidences to proof his case.

The due process ensures that an accuse in not convicted unless this stage is achieved.
