Solution
The correct option is B Gestapo Gestapo was the Secret State Police of the Nazi state. Along with Gestapo, the SS(the protection Squads), Criminal Police and the Security Service(SD) were established. It was the extra-constitutional power of these newly organised forces that gave the Nazi state its reputation as the most dreaded criminal state.
Gestapo and the Security Service were responsible for the round-up of Jews throughout Europe for deportation to the extermination camps.
