Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error lies in the second part of the sentence.
The sentence is in the past tense, and it describes the action of the social activist being killed. The word murder should be in its past participle form murdered to form the passive voice, which is the appropriate tense. So, it should be "was murdered."
Therefore, the correct sentence is: The social activist was murdered in cold blood.
