Had is correct ! Anil went in right direction but ended up
with wrong answers
Soln: B lied ( see anil's comment ) which implies B has not
stolen mule. So B could steal camel or sheep.
1) Lets assume B stole camel.
In that case, A lies ( refer - A says "B had stolen sheep"
), which implies A had stolen sheep ( becoz a lier cant
steal mule ). So A->sheep B->camel C->mule. But this cant
happen because C cant lie ( refer - C says " B had stolen
mule" ).
2) Lets assume B stole sheep.
In that case, A is true ( refer - A says "B had stolen
sheep" ), which implies A had stolen mule. So A->Mule
B->Sheep C->camel. Here C lies ( refer - C says " B had
stolen mule" )
SO ANS: answer A- mule, B-sheep, C camel
