Answer
- B people are arrested by a private police force for no reason.
Explanation
Under the rule of law, nobody may be arrested without reason. A court must decide on any deprivation of liberty (Article 104 of the Basic Law), and there is no "private police" with such powers. Criticism of the government and peaceful demonstrations are permitted, and anyone who commits a crime can lawfully be arrested.
