Dispossession of an occupier from land occupied by her.
  1. Removal
  2. Eviction
  3. Movement
  4. Vacancy

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: B - Eviction
Eviction is the dispossession of an occupier, such as a tenant, from land or premises, usually by legal process. 'Removal' and 'movement' are general words with no legal sense of dispossession, and a vacancy is the state of being unoccupied, not the act of putting someone out.
