Answers:
Direction (1-5):
F sits third to the left of H.
Only two persons sit between F and C.
D sits fourth to the right of G and both are facing opposite direction.
G is not an immediate neighbour of H.
A sits second to the left of B, who does not sit opposite to H.
In case 1a and Case 2b, Not more than two persons are facing same direction sit together, this condition is not satisfied for the above two cases so these cases are rejected.
Immediate neighbors of H are facing opposite direction.
F and G are facing same direction.
A does not face inside.
If F and G are facing outside the centre then A should be facing towards the centre in case 2a. But A does not face inside is given in a statement, so this case is rejected.
And the Final solution is Case 1b.
