Explanation:
We'll consider each person to be the criminal.
- If P is the criminal, P is lying, Q is lying, R is saying the truth, and S is saying the truth.
- If Q is the criminal, P is telling the truth, Q is lying, R and S both are telling the truth.
- If S is the criminal, P and S are lying while Q and R are saying the truth.
- But, if R is the criminal, P, Q and R are all lying, while only S speaks the truth.
Since it is already given that only one of the four statements is correct, it is only logical that R is the criminal.
