• B. Parley
• C. Pardon

Answer 1

The correct option is A Parole

Option B - 'Parley' is a discussion between two groups of people, especially one that is intended to end an argument. Thus option B is incorrect.

Option C - 'Pardon' means to forgive someone for something that they have said or done. This word is often used in polite expressions. Thus option C is incorrect.

Option D - 'Acquit' means to decide officially in a law court that someone is not guilty of a particular crime. Thus option D is incorrect.

Option A - 'Parole' means permission for a prisoner to be released before their period in prison is finished. Thus option A is the correct answer.

'Release of a prisoner from jail on certain terms and conditions - Parole'
