Read the following excerpt from a US court opinion:
```
the government. By calling the Prince a thief, so the argument goes, Zoar-ab expressed a political opinion that identified him as a threat to the government for which he was and fears will be persecuted. The IJ rejected the argument, characterizing the matter as a personal business dispute, not a political matter. The IJ’s conclusion is supported by substantial evidence. Zoarab was clearly acting as an angry investor, not a political dissident, when he and his cousin-in-law sought to confront the Prince. Asylum is not available to an alien who fears retribution solely over personal matters. Matter of Y-G, 20 I & N Dec. 794, 799 (BIA 1994) (explaining that a love quarrel with a Haitian soldier was a “purely personal matter”); see also Matter of Pierre, 15 I & N Dec. 461, 463 (BIA 1971) . Courts have routinely rejected asylum

What is the most suitable continuation to the opinion? Your options are:
A. recognizing that purely personal retribution is of course not persecution on account of political opinion but holding that when the alleged government cor ruption is inextricably intertwined with governmental operation the exposure and prosecution of such an abuse of public trust is necessarily political
B. holding that mayor is a high public official
C. holding that a fear of retribution from a husband a high political official was a strictly personal matter
D. recognizing that purely personal retribution is of course not persecution on account of political opinion but holding that when the alleged government corruption is inextricably intertwined with governmental operation the exposure and prosecution of such an abuse of public trust is necessarily political
E. holding that persecution was on account of political opinion because petitioners prosecutorial investigation into acts of political corruption was by its very nature political
