A boy offers a lift to a girl in the middle of the night. Hours later, the girl is found dead, with no clues about the killer. Who murdered her? And who is this boy who gave her the lift? Let's dive into this thrilling mystery.
Let's start:-
56Please respect copyright.PENANAggmVZ7HhLW
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
56Please respect copyright.PENANACkDNoYiw50
He doesn’t own a bike. His dream is to buy a bike and eventually set up his own departmental store. To achieve this dream, Gopi is saving money little by little.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAQ75gsdgOTI
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAf7KaLN43m8
One night, Gopi went out for a delivery. The delivery time was 11:00PM, but that night it was raining heavily. The delivery was delayed. By the time he finished and started heading back home, it was 1:00AM.
56Please respect copyright.PENANALrCzqotxX6
Heavy rain, darkness on the road, no lights. At that time, there was a girl on the road. Her car had a problem, and she was looking for help (a lift).
56Please respect copyright.PENANAkmWGd6q5hF
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAFY3sQSWY5N
1:00AM… it was raining. Gopi agreed to give her a ride. He didn’t know why, but he felt that the girl had an some special attraction.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAHM7IlXx0TY
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7bUso8IUw
Gopi, as a gesture of help, dropped the girl at Sunshine Apartments and went on his way. That night ended in the silent atmosphere of rain.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAwYKPexLSCe
The next day:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAbvSih4EFJU
Gopi was busy with his work. While getting ready to leave for another delivery, suddenly a police jeep stopped in front of him. Unexpectedly, the police stopped Gopi and took him to the station.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAjPQGDV0LGK
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA7dH75suokY
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAfmqnfLOdL7
In the interrogation room, in a dark room with just one bulb’s light, Gopi’s hands were tied behind his back. The SI asked Gopi – “Why did you kill that girl?”
56Please respect copyright.PENANAfB9wA1Y6GD
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAyJ6V2EQJO6
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
56Please respect copyright.PENANAY43YJIEHKV
“Sir, I don’t know who that girl was! She just asked for a lift, and I gave her a ride out of pity in the rain. I didn’t do anything!” – Gopi said.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAzK43OTapbi
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAMTZkDGJ5rQ
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA3wnkdXoZAy
At the sunshine apartment:
56Please respect copyright.PENANA2rdOIyy6ZR
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAQDIIwNL5va
In the bathtub…
56Please respect copyright.PENANAEM4IcpaUlw
Anita… was lying silent in the bathtub, with blood… a tragic sight. The cuts and blood near her throat and the bloodstains all around the bathroom added to the terrifying atmosphere.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA9FKvXjozmO
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAc3h0Efgs1M
The police checked each room one by one: hall, kitchen, bedroom. They were trying to see if anyone had come in or gone out. Some clues suggested suicide, but they had their doubts.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAkW2LspavnV
At the back of Anita’s room near the staircase, a torn piece of cloth was found – it looked like part of a shirt. And in the back of the apartment, they found some footprints. The police collected all the evidence and sent it for forensic testing.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAzvxXCxmqSR
Forensic Report Findings:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAkDz9qM8o7o
Shirt cloth: Part of a man’s garment.
Footprints: Around 5.5 inches (a bit larger than a typical woman’s foot, but still possible). The police used these to estimate the suspect’s height and weight.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAQXa1yqe1V3
The police gathered all the pieces of the case, tracing back to where Anita had gone and whom she’d met in the week leading up to her death. They were investigating her phone call history, friends, family – leaving no one out.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA49CaPGJ12c
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAXfwvKXlZ86
That night:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAFS0XtyjUrQ
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAjz1eYFmmaZ
Her ex-boyfriend Rahul also showed up. Rahul and Anita had been lovers since college, but that love story had ended in a dark place.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA1JgTWKFEq1
Rahul had taken money from Anita and lost it all betting on cricket matches. When Anita found out, she left Rahul behind and started a new life.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA4EWXOpsXHm
But at the party, seeing Rahul again brought back a flood of memories for Anita. The atmosphere, Rahul’s looks they made her very uneasy. So she left the party, saying she wasn’t feeling well.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAN6NUuixB3C
On her way back, her car broke down. That night, in the dark rain, Anita was terrified. She waited for help. At that moment, Gopi appeared on his bike and offered her a lift home.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAbhXGAYvFEZ
Present Day:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAxS8lFHw3F2
The police interrogation deepened. The atmosphere in the police station grew tense. Alongside Gopi, Rahul and Komal’s statements were also coming out one by one. The police were interrogating each of them, but it was still unclear whose words hid the real truth.
56Please respect copyright.PENANADiEGyrKpQg
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
56Please respect copyright.PENANACdoehDkEOL
Komal: “Sir, I saw Anita for the first time at the marriage proposal meeting. I don’t know much about her friends. That day, she said she wasn’t feeling well and left the party early.”
Komal seemed to be telling the truth. But the police still had their doubts.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAiaBxDCgVbR
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
56Please respect copyright.PENANAOgartMkKIa
Rahul: “Sir, it’s true I went to the party to congratulate her. We were lovers in college. Sir, Anita helped me many times with money, but I lost it in betting. I cheated her and couldn’t save that love.”
56Please respect copyright.PENANA01iX9uuYg8
“When she left the party, I left too.”
56Please respect copyright.PENANA34LabEMo9P
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
56Please respect copyright.PENANActMNtJrL4c
Three angles of police suspicion:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAtAJEGxKxEb
Rahul: He came to the party – said he didn’t do anything.
Komal: Said he didn’t know his wife-to-be very well.
Gopi: Said he only gave a lift.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAuXB6uj7o8u
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAeW3BUV6qrB
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
56Please respect copyright.PENANALQUeHWQD3U
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAvEBYtQ4yuM
Police questions to her parents:
56Please respect copyright.PENANApcIdUgrz2J
“Did you force her to marry?”
“Did Anita have any special friend?”
"Who arranged this marriage?”
“Did you notice any changes in Anita’s behavior?”
56Please respect copyright.PENANAirQcyFpJgj
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
56Please respect copyright.PENANAHwkM1Z0RDt
Tracking the shirt cloth:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAA9ZYmoQZTK
They traced the design, color, and brand of the cloth. Around 200 shops and 50 malls around Hyderabad had similar shirts, but no direct link was found.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAiTcr2Ynd5f
CCTV Investigation:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAtFYcDaQpjT
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAGDCARUsFHN
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAPMrqSPfMWb
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAY2BXwmCxsj
Anita’s parents may not know the real truth… or may be hiding something.
The shirt cloth could be the real murder link – needs careful reexamination.
They needed to question Hyderabad’s biggest garment companies.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAIvxTMd1f79
Two days later:
56Please respect copyright.PENANANEl14rnqow
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA1opK7fPXsI
Lawyer’s Argument:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAz9guSVklEp
“Sir, you know everything… he admitted to giving her a lift. But there’s no proof that Gopi went back to the apartment after dropping her off.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAbizgfRjV8e
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
56Please respect copyright.PENANAKCQejkQhGo
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
56Please respect copyright.PENANAJVFcWziq6D
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAw5f92fhEkD
He couldn’t leave Hyderabad until the case was fully investigated.
If the police called, he had to report to the station immediately.
If any new evidence was found, he had to cooperate.
56Please respect copyright.PENANANmwz35bZWR
Back at home:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAmLbfkxYYGS
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAhhnuEv8oeh
Flashback:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAuqMyzZKnMz
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAA4XOw8b9Wr
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAsFuxbWqxI2
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAfSQNQo7SnK
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA8GUSV5yefB
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAihtzsWXnCb
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAupygckyhMd
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA1GnN7mOqII
After reaching Sunshine Apartments, Anita offered Gopi some coffee. Since it was raining, she suggested that he drink coffee and then leave once the rain slowed down.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAqj5zPjhMme
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAVrxlIMB1e9
Fifteen minutes later, Rahul went to Anita’s room from the back of the apartments. But by the time he reached there, Anita was already dead.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA2KMLZqS1T9
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
56Please respect copyright.PENANA7GkpGPfibq
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAvvRtPWaQWl
Two months later:
56Please respect copyright.PENANALdFjSRj0mU
Gopi, thinking of Anita as a friend, visited her house. Talking to Anita’s mother, he was looking around the house. He saw the calling bell – it was the very one Gopi had delivered to Anita’s house and even installed it for her.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAdrp4X62z7r
That calling bell wasn’t an ordinary bell; it had a hidden camera in it. The recordings were stored on Anita’s phone. Gopi knew there was a camera in that bell. Gopi asked Anita’s parents for her phone and took it.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAY3Tqkt8fI9
Opening the app linked to the calling bell, he found the video of what happened that night. It showed Anita’s murder clearly and everything was recorded.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAMZnL8DlXeh
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
56Please respect copyright.PENANAWXoUKWptCr
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAVTTeBz5rQP
What was in the video:
56Please respect copyright.PENANArrKZivquog
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
56Please respect copyright.PENANASrz3BbjKeQ
Anita entered her apartment and, to her shock, saw another girl inside. Before Anita could even ask, “Who are you?”, the girl slashed Anita’s hand with a knife. Anita stood there stunned, but the girl then cut Anita’s throat deeply with the same knife. Blood kept pouring as Anita struggled for her life.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAcD2xZvhHIe
The girl watched Anita calmly, then put her body in the bathtub, cleaned up the blood, wiped away all evidence in the apartment, put on the apartment security guard’s uniform, and casually took the elevator down.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAgKqwbTKq6w
Komal’s confession:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAebVOISwbj0
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAxLOIhcCbUe
“The girl in the video is Mala. She’s the girl who loved me, but she’s not mentally stable. Even after I told her I didn’t love her, she kept following me.
56Please respect copyright.PENANALrzS0SIzNE
I told Mala's parents about this, and they understood the situation and took her to a doctor. She was under treatment and I hadn’t seen her for a year. She must have found out about my wedding and come here.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAMOUxY4htho
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
56Please respect copyright.PENANA4G1EnSjALJ
Police action:
56Please respect copyright.PENANA1opqbuEli9
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAmbNlhZUHNs
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
56Please respect copyright.PENANAbbTyvJ7IP4
“That day, that night, as soon as you asked me to come in for coffee, I should have come in. If I’d stayed with you, I could have saved you, and you would still be alive… I’m sorry, Anita,” he said, tears falling down.
56Please respect copyright.PENANAZIRSbA1BZD
The End…
