Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Section 19(1) permits arrest where the officer, "on the basis of material in his possession", has "reason to believe (the reason for such belief to be recorded in writing)" that the person "has been guilty of an offence punishable under this Act". Suspicion, another case or an oral complaint is not enough.
