Dear teachers,
Can you tell me which is the explanation of the word "remove�in the following sentence?
Three students were removed from school for their usually going to the net bar at night.
A. take sb./sth. away from a place
B. dismiss sb. from their position or job.

Thank you very much!

It means literally, that they were taken away from school.
It could mean that they were expelled.
