I find it easy to just represent these Pictorially
-----James -----------------Kelly
------------------------------Ned----------------------------- Mark
----------------Luis-----------------------Luis
Based on the info Luis could be either if the two positions - thats why I have shown Luis twice.
Now look at the answer options - 'D' is the only that is sure to be True
-A
