Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The error in the sentence is in the second part. In the second part, "to have" is incorrect. The verb "denied" is followed by the gerund form, which is "having" in this context. Verbs can be followed by either the infinitive form (to + base verb) or the gerund form (base verb + -ing) with a change in meaning.
Therefore, the correct sentence is "He denied having been there".
