C Correct answer
Explanation

Order 39 Rule 2(3) CPC allows court to detain person in civil prison for breach of injunction, but only while breach continues, not indefinitely after it ceases (making Option A incorrect). Order 39 Rule 2(j) provides for attachment and potential sale of property, but entire sale proceeds do not go to injured party as compensation - they're held by court (making Option B incorrect). Since both statements misstate the legal provisions, option C is correct.
