Answer:

B. Confiscation

Step-by-step explanation:

The confiscation is an action that is taken by a relevant authority seizing the properties or goods of a company or person. When these goods are taken, the authority that seized the goods and properties does not recognize any payment or monetary compensation for the goods.
