Answer:

Allegation

Step-by-step explanation:

Allegation may be desribed as a proposition or claim which is yet to be verified or established by facts. Allegation is usually used in criminal cases or arrests whereby a person or individual is said to have carried about a certain action or responsible for a crime at an early stage (without an established fact) usually done in the court of law. Hence, when a suaoevt is arrested or caught on the basis of having carried out a crime, it is called an allegation.
