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:-
363Please respect copyright.PENANAgrzbar3Ex1
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAyNydRTBoFX
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAZMd5OPcoSi
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAtB6LxuqpPI
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAgg8heJzcCM
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).
363Please respect copyright.PENANA4lI2Capca4
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
363Please respect copyright.PENANARG9rYzmWT4
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANALlefQRF7lS
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAEkbrGNa0iX
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAhgA32Xt36P
The next day:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAavvqEMYaGF
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANADCyum3HFeY
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
363Please respect copyright.PENANA10epjU1ysu
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAuNnVGNYQN6
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?”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAxtPc4zhOuQ
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAOCDk6b6xrZ
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
363Please respect copyright.PENANA17bFcd6n5h
“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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAMmTVKi0rUA
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAeOS0JKtbZZ
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
363Please respect copyright.PENANALERKX8SauY
At the sunshine apartment:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAZV5o82UtSi
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAKBn1wl9KI4
In the bathtub…
363Please respect copyright.PENANA5OL21atiPB
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAAW6v2DZfaV
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAuNsNJxmJ3a
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAwWrFatwW0T
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANApRwe9aKOpj
Forensic Report Findings:
363Please respect copyright.PENANA9iFPPIMbyP
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANADgriqqFeYe
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANA2vUf1ey3lR
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
363Please respect copyright.PENANA6UjILiTOSl
That night:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAv0uZzlNKRl
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAFJtTd5GA5w
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAAWHXwkIlOE
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAhyQgedZQXN
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAA3WBwlOXoF
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANA3IkSW63emN
Present Day:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAwjsRaH2Tt8
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANArRpq2hfSMQ
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
363Please respect copyright.PENANAFivrheiJRr
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAh1jmFwT9Mc
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
363Please respect copyright.PENANAPrgrOYCbiL
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.”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAI61hlR1S8t
“When she left the party, I left too.”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAFQxQLggRCl
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
363Please respect copyright.PENANA0bBQhS1RWj
Three angles of police suspicion:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAhyLDib2yHl
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAkkJI8fYak2
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAFahfxdkfA6
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAVYZnSRxMxQ
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAukRMgyHZvU
Police questions to her parents:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAa8FPXNncX8
“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?”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAPUgoZKAIwa
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAiV0YKMJ3rx
Tracking the shirt cloth:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAkAPn7Xs0YP
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANARhAf7WAyZ0
CCTV Investigation:
363Please respect copyright.PENANA7n97HsrFbT
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAa2U7TKCoKx
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAKbX1YQMcM9
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAYZXqQ2Mifp
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANALDp4aVboo4
Two days later:
363Please respect copyright.PENANA0FJbkBCceJ
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
363Please respect copyright.PENANA3g9Wu7uVVt
Lawyer’s Argument:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAUz48LllALv
“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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAdeM1ML97og
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAfQky4jJPRz
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAIDcmM5yKds
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAVb23ADmDtS
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAhbiSMGHuBL
Back at home:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAQDDczO5159
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAwRP3oUqSoy
Flashback:
363Please respect copyright.PENANApCP8LP7Rmq
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAb1fPJ0waG8
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAHR1X7ibdQD
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAxkxCXiqLq5
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAafnHSEk1mi
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAPpGJkxTQCW
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAlQYQVg0i4u
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAel4ylBXvPQ
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAKnm4WLVv6h
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAePn6WAxVNe
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAYW1hxwwEtm
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAodSodnY10F
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAME5Is0SjnQ
Two months later:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAAcDzQCXZPt
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAlL5EATqohP
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAjkjjZ5fjpe
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANACB5EJrSsy9
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
363Please respect copyright.PENANAAlluHPDJ9M
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAV4xVnR5Qtk
What was in the video:
363Please respect copyright.PENANA6At6DHhuIP
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAmJq3EeKU3O
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAVn7HShiKF9
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANA3Lelieculk
Komal’s confession:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAztkPozsoiH
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
363Please respect copyright.PENANADWwUowABif
“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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAIEBpfMZnDw
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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANADFRuKTTAmp
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
363Please respect copyright.PENANAjZzS9cduvk
Police action:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAODer3zsSLU
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAPBWZJhYRWu
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
363Please respect copyright.PENANAxCRJMKFvoN
“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.
363Please respect copyright.PENANAzfdYEnJ7mS
The End…
