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:-
906Please respect copyright.PENANAk3qOXdHmIE
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAiK9mytXBG2
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANARHD0KI0lwZ
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAYZawNFygaw
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAIHGCgmTJ0r
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).
906Please respect copyright.PENANAGW3cm3RLl1
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAJq99Wx3qDh
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAx1u8ewtI1l
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAKINit3MMES
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANA82WSggA1CV
The next day:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAbWzDYAU7T4
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAadVfHI6i5e
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
906Please respect copyright.PENANATwmq93D8zE
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAuJGiV2PLLU
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?”
906Please respect copyright.PENANA78BpNdApbQ
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAe5Hftvjfkx
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
906Please respect copyright.PENANAVj2nyHs5wl
“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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2UsFB6p0z
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAzjy9ZA0gqK
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAn4cvTJuAdZ
At the sunshine apartment:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAd1xU8z18bK
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
906Please respect copyright.PENANADyuKg4YEf9
In the bathtub…
906Please respect copyright.PENANAc1tS8Kq8is
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANA0l5XqnqM8P
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAIe9YSZ2YJ5
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAQoLCkKGxjJ
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAY4ePCTKVW8
Forensic Report Findings:
906Please respect copyright.PENANA9ycjOOtpg4
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAejaokzmCva
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAj1niu7zSuN
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAthgVTm4fY7
That night:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAFSLC2tIMzg
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
906Please respect copyright.PENANA8ceH9f3Hi8
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAe2s6VgLQLm
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAVB08pZYoqQ
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAZkQiUps4nm
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAK27PHl6zfL
Present Day:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAYq9cQm3mNI
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAepBiACTRxl
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
906Please respect copyright.PENANA8vQ6T7ui5d
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAAJqJhoZuVZ
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
906Please respect copyright.PENANARooyhegPsl
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.”
906Please respect copyright.PENANAGhxfeXl9e4
“When she left the party, I left too.”
906Please respect copyright.PENANA36O009zihw
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAaoUaWmZzL7
Three angles of police suspicion:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAhXiv7RBnzs
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAtDBdWBtqA4
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAkdt0vOGe61
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAJcwi7Qj7wi
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAPWECg0E4FI
Police questions to her parents:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAsumDtubuVY
“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?”
906Please respect copyright.PENANAWouGA7EhDD
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
906Please respect copyright.PENANAutjXcPCbgd
Tracking the shirt cloth:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAP5I6ZLFfjP
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAv94l8GvnHY
CCTV Investigation:
906Please respect copyright.PENANA9373hgR9tA
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAjZu1kfmAFA
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
906Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q1cDqg4gh
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
906Please respect copyright.PENANA4GfGlxDDIb
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAVMP3hQrGV8
Two days later:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAFBDFP0hgKB
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAeTNQxN9QQH
Lawyer’s Argument:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAAexUtYaNc6
“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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANASMwNmLlw7L
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
906Please respect copyright.PENANAAWjk5s9gfx
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
906Please respect copyright.PENANACdxwAEzUGm
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
906Please respect copyright.PENANARpPqqFMYHW
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAj64RBmUZjW
Back at home:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAIBPPQc0ktW
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAS7oJ2KXsj1
Flashback:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAcNTAEBOB0w
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAEA3TiVCNL9
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAVaXlLWkFmk
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAH5DLDbnhyd
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAsD0AzVIgl2
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAc1V0nTWJzd
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAS2pGsFXYVd
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAz2n0mO1Y2C
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAxBmRsATzgs
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAb2PDDbXzZ1
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAJvxfND2oZ4
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAgQsKzjZZwG
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAw5WZPh5kKi
Two months later:
906Please respect copyright.PENANA6HZUjdvjut
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAx3pnq5zEOE
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANA65EYLYswvS
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAr5z0AhQ94P
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
906Please respect copyright.PENANAJa2eGJHluj
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
906Please respect copyright.PENANABs91XLgyZV
What was in the video:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAxRFnVrZh7F
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAb98umvPmFW
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAdz7U6msLgb
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAAvjk6YlZ1Q
Komal’s confession:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAvrHrg3Mj8D
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
906Please respect copyright.PENANA6BkvH857Ge
“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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAXIXC8ABSCF
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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAF3wHIAK2us
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
906Please respect copyright.PENANA6spvBj8CUy
Police action:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAK1WvLXbUvL
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
906Please respect copyright.PENANAp8AzXp39Zb
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
906Please respect copyright.PENANAqAcsJzbxvp
“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.
906Please respect copyright.PENANALC1crlMaUB
The End…
