WILL may or may not be registered, however Witnesses to a WILL need not be allowed to read the WILL or know its contents.

The witness is to authenticate signing by the testator, not less not more than this.
By the way how you are concerned with this academic question paper??

There is no compulsion that witness must read and know what is described in the will.

What are the facts? What is the issue?

The witness can affirm that testator signed in their presence.
The WILL is registered and registering authority has registered the WILL.
The witness may not have seen or may not have been shown the contents of WILL.
