**Identify the part of the sentence that contains a grammatical or idiomatic error. If there is no error, select option (e).**

(a) A property dealer was / (b) shoot dead by four unidentified jacket-clad men / (c) while taking a morning walk / (d) in the park. / (e) No error

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Analyze each part of the sentence:
   - (a) "A property dealer was" is grammatically correct.
   - (b) "shoot dead by four unidentified jacket-clad men" is incorrect. The verb form should be in the past participle to form the passive voice correctly. It should be "shot dead" instead of "shoot dead".
   - (c) "while taking a morning walk" is correct.
   - (d) "in the park" is also correct.

2. The error lies in part (b) where the verb "shoot" is wrongly used instead of "shot".

**Answer:** (b)
