Solution

The correct option is A Agl
Even when ammonia is added and a proportion of the silver is now present in solution as the amine complex, there is still a sufficiently high concentration of 'simple' aquated silver ions to exceed the solubility product of AgI due to which AgI is insoluble in aqueous ammonia.
