The answer is A. Internment is the custody or confinement of persons, usually in large assemblies, deprived of trial. The term is particularly used for the imprisonment "of opponent citizens in wartime or of violence suspects". Therefore, while it can just mean imprisonment, it have a habit of to mention to defensive confinement, more willingly than confinement subsequently having been sentenced of some crime.
