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:-
9Please respect copyright.PENANAW23Ml0yP0K
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAXWiLAH0gFC
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAji8ZVY0iN4
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA2CV2YBbopW
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA4MQRPJF009
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).
9Please respect copyright.PENANA4nKZLRgs41
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAGRpNrWfU8Y
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAGlV6yRvrEc
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAaVuHW3fymX
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA1959ErimXn
The next day:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAwBD2i9GIie
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA3JWGUDVuuS
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAh4rvRbsjYV
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAvqHdCB9STR
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?”
9Please respect copyright.PENANAG0jrQXFwL9
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAB43FuXdF6P
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
9Please respect copyright.PENANA7KaOSiyH88
“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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA1DKRhz7tWE
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAE2B3G4abQf
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAuGlacNMdbn
At the sunshine apartment:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAg5Phjbd13q
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAQEbP8sWRvk
In the bathtub…
9Please respect copyright.PENANAyrDgh6ZTqt
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAchP2r8kewm
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA1lkbPMZVD5
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAneuscbC257
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAiSIA1SO6lK
Forensic Report Findings:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAkcG4SL4YRb
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZPhgaONGa
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAuRIDMF7dG3
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA6qg6klYUg1
That night:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAkHfaEj02B1
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAzLPUxtYdhu
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAA4KeTUmf4A
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAOeMnZFUssJ
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAkpWXViUybl
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAH4HFMELHf4
Present Day:
9Please respect copyright.PENANACAKZU1on12
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAzaebp6Ug9F
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
9Please respect copyright.PENANA6jvqLgW3x5
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAOfVssFDZvy
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
9Please respect copyright.PENANATwt2Cd2XWH
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.”
9Please respect copyright.PENANAhMP1sC3gVB
“When she left the party, I left too.”
9Please respect copyright.PENANAQwPmBDXzu8
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAqSDfEm4yRz
Three angles of police suspicion:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAZSFegkg1R0
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAWO0XvA83fi
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAWoosCdvi7k
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAjXsWam1il9
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAr4WW9Ju78U
Police questions to her parents:
9Please respect copyright.PENANArxYqxc0Bo5
“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?”
9Please respect copyright.PENANA5tDYgBu4MN
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
9Please respect copyright.PENANA8dP82jmWkH
Tracking the shirt cloth:
9Please respect copyright.PENANACSSazEnLHY
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6IwbDnS91
CCTV Investigation:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAMYfEOsWe79
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAY2Bx38UCXr
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
9Please respect copyright.PENANArmE1JznSPo
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAnPAZ0pt08E
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAqscotIxQFB
Two days later:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAB37XfMrbDr
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
9Please respect copyright.PENANATdAMXVvkZP
Lawyer’s Argument:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAmMI6GSiY7j
“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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAlb2riELgTv
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
9Please respect copyright.PENANABP5G4Eoqwm
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
9Please respect copyright.PENANAXT8IQAwFtR
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAy8cAHHdBO5
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAlxUGcDTWGl
Back at home:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAIDTZ4chaKS
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAFdhLSdeMgN
Flashback:
9Please respect copyright.PENANADhipqnezej
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAGhsD3OGdg5
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA8BChnXlDFP
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
9Please respect copyright.PENANArigx21n0N8
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAmDfNxdZQeM
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAhi9upApI2A
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAuGFm2izhbn
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAGiONnRTVhl
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA9GlcUfwD5c
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
9Please respect copyright.PENANANmKsQK5fX9
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAIWM1jh6UO8
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAL2PvtpvfMA
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAMFxCkYjJzv
Two months later:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAbP5MvmMyyz
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAniCgrJPNXO
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAzEGD05xNpf
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANA4DvvhP82OH
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
9Please respect copyright.PENANA7RrdLeaMYl
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAPZXhxHdSaA
What was in the video:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9gj0tMWYX
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAoYEFwt7axH
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAfYZSP35djf
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAmKDxgwKbyx
Komal’s confession:
9Please respect copyright.PENANA2EiYA0ps6o
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
9Please respect copyright.PENANA9JbNLlnyxx
“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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAce0snNHWkl
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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAREYCiS3qeh
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
9Please respect copyright.PENANA6K9JLpImff
Police action:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAA8zBmguT1E
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAP3BcsnHFjq
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
9Please respect copyright.PENANAHm5JQ4p5Ee
“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.
9Please respect copyright.PENANAyXDXP1Tdrt
The End…
