Solution

The correct option is D Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct
Assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.
X and Y had murdered with a relationship between them as of same intentions and presence of mind. At the point when a criminal action is finished by a few people in encouragement of regular expectation of all, every one of such people is at risk for that action in a similar way as though it were finished by only him.
Hence, D is the correct option.
