Correct Answer: (1)


Solution : The error lies in the first part.

"Luggages" should be replaced with "luggage" to convey the intended meaning that the bags were retrieved from the station's lockers.

"Luggage" is an uncountable noun and doesn't have a plural form. "Were" is also replaced with "was" to maintain the subject-verb agreement.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Their luggage, which was kept at the station's restroom's lockers, was later retrieved."
