Watch out!
To form questions in the passive, we put the auxiliary verb before the subject. If there is more than one auxiliary verb, only the first one goes before the subject.
✓ Was Mr Jenkins arrested yesterday?
✓ Has Mr Jenkins been arrested?

With the question words who and what, we use do as an auxiliary verb if the question word refers to the object of the verb.
✓ Who told you? ( = Someone told you. Who?)
✓ Who did you tell? ( = You told someone. Who?)
