Detailed Solution

In any sentence, the easy past is employed after we should indicate an action or event which has previously happened within the past.
The syntax for the easy tense in voice is:
The verb within the IInd form
The syntax for the straightforward past in voice is:
Was/were + Verb in IIIrd form

In a sentence, a full of life voice is employed when the doer (subject) comes first and performs an action that's described within the remainder of the sentence (predicate).
Passive voice is employed when the predicate comes before the topic.

Therefore the proper option for this question is: died .......... were brought, which is an option (c.).

Note: Gauge the tense of the given sentence. Does it discuss with something that's happening or something that is going on before? Use the correct tense only after gauging the event’s presence (past or present) within the sentence.
