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:-
724Please respect copyright.PENANAboMpKEgQ3v
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAj2mk7ohYOJ
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAtuBuJOxrYt
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAAvpKDSj0TL
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANABsIv6xeFpg
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).
724Please respect copyright.PENANAgBGp3CVsRL
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAKJG2DauJUh
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAqQFAHYjcmw
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAeedyk7MfJT
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA2uuDKPclSV
The next day:
724Please respect copyright.PENANA09Hw48E5mG
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA61xAIqwUuJ
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA2dni1Gnlm5
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAOzkRU5aeW2
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?”
724Please respect copyright.PENANABtNUPBEmw1
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAkpDVtEJBS1
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
724Please respect copyright.PENANA3uUhKor0o5
“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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANApniaIyYrMo
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAxShPn8KH4g
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA5ExsTKwIJI
At the sunshine apartment:
724Please respect copyright.PENANA76GmRvcOow
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAzzRFI66cnW
In the bathtub…
724Please respect copyright.PENANAkovTFtN66h
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAqkeicNXkB8
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
724Please respect copyright.PENANADSURA1R2wG
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAN2MKAltCCU
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAfgbGbQtQom
Forensic Report Findings:
724Please respect copyright.PENANABhAk0Bnx0B
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA0dcpdoH2ZE
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAdsVPFtPzO0
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAKrQrcDaUvv
That night:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAms6DtzaqKM
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA3Zmhyah2wB
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAZA9rknZmvS
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANANTn4A7ZoJB
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAZaDKqBBOLb
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAB5gSYnIO3p
Present Day:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAuadvekEE5E
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA3iTqyCZFYP
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
724Please respect copyright.PENANA0rVsObjsYK
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA7iJfibkAn4
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
724Please respect copyright.PENANA8JE6ch4dlt
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.”
724Please respect copyright.PENANAtrApEy1Xd9
“When she left the party, I left too.”
724Please respect copyright.PENANAVqR4By3PPN
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAUohNNWd5Ko
Three angles of police suspicion:
724Please respect copyright.PENANA9csFXP6aca
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANApznpYmvxBO
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAAdyZY3jUp4
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
724Please respect copyright.PENANABOmxr5XwxL
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAsJRHROfxzb
Police questions to her parents:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAVlGsgEKuY3
“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?”
724Please respect copyright.PENANAtkY05FJ6iN
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
724Please respect copyright.PENANAvdZ5OrOb1P
Tracking the shirt cloth:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAhwyJkLIxSP
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANACUCVbZci9Z
CCTV Investigation:
724Please respect copyright.PENANApIg0Di6Gsy
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAlSu6zW0N4L
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA0TGbEWUtxk
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAs2VhK251oQ
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANABWr0ndbZoI
Two days later:
724Please respect copyright.PENANA1VdOwVtWKk
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAsfdnRWGVMh
Lawyer’s Argument:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAiaIcIrSlPN
“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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAdM5Oo89o6K
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
724Please respect copyright.PENANA6IyGTOvuxx
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
724Please respect copyright.PENANAx45Yh0AaNh
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
724Please respect copyright.PENANA4aHnZIaIyz
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANARBQ1OAIOKE
Back at home:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAFQhm91wzYn
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
724Please respect copyright.PENANADQClSYHIyg
Flashback:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAqCtV9AuSZy
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAvDVwhW4tZ6
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA41tHomh8Vm
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAcZCUQfsOSN
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAXuOS4DHLEd
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAv9bZrsq1CW
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAKBLFH95XKt
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAP6RNgv9lWe
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAnvCg9b81Rt
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAvafQntwEbC
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA4nInZtj2vo
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
724Please respect copyright.PENANATDBPmqRpgm
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAQJFeJLKXmj
Two months later:
724Please respect copyright.PENANALe2e7VCSJb
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA2L0TtBPAQx
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAjTDAxRLqPP
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAzkCrMWALhL
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
724Please respect copyright.PENANAcDEM7JbKlW
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA9MEReBE7S2
What was in the video:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAh9jFlgqls8
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAx6PDnUnS1m
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANA0jFwbVUzaa
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAPcoBgCYZaq
Komal’s confession:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAX90yZLjn8U
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
724Please respect copyright.PENANALfxZjZDBDl
“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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANALiiGEA4NWw
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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAxrAlIzhyRk
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
724Please respect copyright.PENANA9fy7JZcTC7
Police action:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAOTqToxubro
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAhfaTvBsDUA
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
724Please respect copyright.PENANAY2fdibtoaw
“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.
724Please respect copyright.PENANAiEg7jcNx6d
The End…
