Answer 1

Answer:

B is the correct option.

Answer 2

Many criminals escape from(A) the hands of law(B) due to lack of(C) evidence(D).

Here in the given sentence the phrase (B) due to lack of is incorrect.

This phrase is grammatically incorrect as the correct phrase will be " due to a lack of ".

'a' is missing in this phrase and therefore it is grammatically incorrect. We can see that the word 'evidence' is in singular form therefore 'a' will be used before 'lack off'.
