Detailed Solution

Concept-In, active voice definite punctuations are used and we quote the person, whereas in passive the punctuations are absent
Active voice means that the stated sentence has a subject that performs its verb. In short, this means that the subject is detectable or is present in the sentence.
Passive voice means that a subject is in the position of an object, This means that the subject is not fully seen. It is usually there but is considered hidden. At the end of a passive voice sentence, to make the subject seen, we just add ‘by someone’. This becomes the default subject. To convert the active voice into a passive voice, all we need to do is change the order of the parts of speech. So, the ‘subject + verb + object’ in the active voice exchanges to object + verb + (subject)’ in the passive voice.
‘Someone has picked his pocket’:This sentence is in active voice and it is grammatically correct. So, this is the correct option.
Hence, option 4 is correct.
