Relative pronouns are used to connect a clauses or phrases to a nouns or pronouns.

They are used for establishing connections. In the question "who" is the correct answer as who is used to connect the two clauses . Here the connection is between two people hence WHO is the correct relative pronoun that is used for making connections between people .

"Which" is used when things are present in the clauses .

"That " is used for connecting clauses which contain words having suffix "thing"(example : anything) , only , all and for superlatives. As the given sentence doesn't contain any of the above stated points "that" cannot be used .
