4 point play

[PP]

Found this question and answer but i don't get why 2 free throws would be awarded if the try is successful.
Question: Airborne shooter A1 has been fouled by B1 in the act of shooting a two-point try. B2 moved into Al's landing space after he was airborne and commits a blocking foul against A1. The try is successful. True or False
True - Section 1 Article 1 & Article 2 (Case Book 4.1.1) - 2004
Ruling: Two free throws will be awarded A1.

Here's a hint -- how many fouls were committed?

Well obviously there is two fouls. Is the second considered intentional so you have 2 shots ?

When two different players commit a foul on one play, what kind of foul is it? What's the penalty for that?

(and, this is a test question, not a "real life" question)

I found this question on a website. (not a test)

Just found it..A multiple foul rule 4.19.11 Penalty 10.6

False Multiple. I have never called one. This actually does happen, but officials only penalize the first foul. I wonder if it is out of lack of knowledge or because officials don't want to penalize 2 fouls on such a play. I watched a state tournament game have this happen where the trail called a foul on the arm during a try and then the lead came out with a block as the second defender slid underneath the shooter. The officials only penalized the 1st foul.
