Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Benzenediazonium salt is prepared by the reaction of aniline with nitrous acid at $273-278 \ K$. It decomposes easily in the dry state.
Statement $II$: Insertion of iodine into the benzene ring is difficult and hence iodobenzene is prepared through the reaction of benzenediazonium salt with $KI$. In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• A
  Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are correct
• B
  Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are incorrect
• C
  Statement $I$ is correct but Statement $II$ is incorrect
• D
