Explanation:

The given sentence indicates that there is evidence against the concerned person which means that it is not possible to let the person free. Punish, release and ignore impart an opposite meaning to the sentence due to the presence of ‘cannot’. Absolve means declare (someone) free from guilt, obligation, or punishment. Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
