Offence cleared by charge refers to when police have enough evidence to charge someone for a crime, even if they have not been arrested or apprehended. This is a way to indicate that the offender has been identified and the case has been resolved, even if there has not been a formal arrest or conviction. The other options (A, D, E) do not specifically refer to the resolution of a specific offence, and B is not a commonly used term in crime reporting.
