In the following sentence, four words or phrases have been given in bold. One of them is incorrect. Select the INCORRECT word or phrase from the given options. The criminal did not harbour any contest for the victim that he had murdered, it was a spur of the moment crime. Correct Answer Contest

The error lies in the word 'contest'. Contest means a fight or challenge, which is incorrect, given the context of the sentence.

To harbour means to possess something, usually unlawfully. Victim is somebody who is wronged by others. Spur means fast or an urge.

Spur of the moment means something unplanned. The correct word here could be something like 'ill will' or 'contention'. Therefore, the correct answer is option 2.
