Question
Section 125 protects whom from disclosing information obtained during professional duties?
Solution
Section 125 of the Act provides that interpreters and other persons like clerks or servants of advocates are bound by the same duty of confidentiality as the advocate. They cannot disclose any privileged communication they become aware of during their duties. This extends the umbrella of professional confidentiality beyond the advocate to all who assist in legal services. The aim is to preserve the integrity of legal strategy and communication. Option D is correct because interpreters are specifically protected under this provision for maintaining client confidentiality.
