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:-
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc15euwSb3
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhyTi6XnQI
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1RN86QMyC
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzrkqowehM
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLyzoUX2Vj
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).
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiBFrRRnsD
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡev9nurpGZa
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1poYeAWHri
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBl41AX2on
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9R6PzFkrWJ
The next day:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbbT5x5dwg
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3qLUZlTsn
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHy0Q5eYhRF
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXQlpoieVq
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?”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5uSz8AEwl
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniobTJsrio
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr77rfPZO1n
“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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDOsGCz659
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vW1XGs35M
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡom86mtjg6P
At the sunshine apartment:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Kh5DvK6xC
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO63fUXRkl9
In the bathtub…
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0suCFiZ8ho
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeelo5aLyhA
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtLf0kkdaW
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVH6NnwSAW
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUfr91Sawe
Forensic Report Findings:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Rh7WZCMza
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Pbd56Czvl
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFtPcV0fWA
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59yKmtn9km
That night:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPuofUMpck
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMbxXnYm8w
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmTDMQ5lSp
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQxnQsX2eI
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN15jo3nKjm
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmtXskL3K7
Present Day:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErS9r903Z3
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0ubED4Qzi
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHZWXKIqAh
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2bDgFpNUS
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwO7lnscUUV
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.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11N1XHnFD7
“When she left the party, I left too.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpWyPLrfPO
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DLG0X6f7G
Three angles of police suspicion:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8hxrZZ2PE
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu2fEVsBIu
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw56nNxMrnj
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrBQfSJTaC
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GafdaxCfT
Police questions to her parents:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhIFku6Gzq
“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?”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeuMrymZ7z
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR0IWlq8Xx
Tracking the shirt cloth:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kmEFOAKBa
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajOoPNWPmF
CCTV Investigation:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjL4l4IYxS
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdDJFI4S7M
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ndLicrQXt
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ek9r9yY9n
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSAMWTDlnd
Two days later:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFUqEIqWgW
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo67XcRYjTr
Lawyer’s Argument:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO9PBOwclP
“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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcV5TFwu1sE
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUKIRptl8s
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBviOyXVDN4
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC95IUPbT5
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50fXelaX8t
Back at home:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFi8t5TV4D
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7Ax1lIRcg
Flashback:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37hWuGNeFH
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogEdJqZhSx
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VE05h6xiP
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR4logQT6I
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFS8FeCerdE
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDEnTbPgZy
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKSBpm2s3e
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU1uBMXdqL
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8lGWZjB7E
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKuy4Pb3Nq
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtySGQbAPl
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb52AvGJhH9
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbv13VnT9j
Two months later:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOet3WYWtL
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurAzJQzpc5
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTLjKpaEyi
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5g4tN1UiuM
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2FPu0hj0M
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ208tPP92hG
What was in the video:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlK9vrMkYtP
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX8YebYGCm
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4qF7aaQVj
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxgThayVKE
Komal’s confession:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnndUGWuT5S
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQQDRpcy7y
“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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxfImoYToP
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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC5GvT90J8
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEd3cuuAzf
Police action:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2jlFL50Tr
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZD8cEuGUIO
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnNIR28aRr
“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.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqwknHK3Vm
The End…
