Ans: B
False imprisonment is the intentional and unjustifiable detention of a person against his or her will. Detention can occur with the use of physical restraint, barriers, or threats of harm. Battery is unlawful touching of another without consent. Defamation involves injury to a person's reputation or character through oral (slander) or written (libel) communications to a third party. Assault is an act that puts another person in apprehension of being touched or of bodily harm without consent.
