answer the last question

Answer 1

No there is no evidence of criminal activity.

Explaination: compound A is sucrose and compound D is acetaminophen which is basically paracetamol ( i.e., used to treat pain and fever) keeping both of them is not a criminal activity as they don't come under category of recreational drug.

But if there was compound B (cocaine) it will be considered as criminal activity as it is a recreational drug.
