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:-
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4zkrAa2FX
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZDpU6Ovpt
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQWLfd7eaw
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWX9WqRcJn3
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcEiia1W1P
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).
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiUQDdjmUi
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNfo3MKEnZ
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6vdOlNpv2
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii1iD1uP6P
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQiUhRUyNM
The next day:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JNxECDDWh
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7T9wDVwTQ
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUEhlWfM3q
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyj6dopFyW
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?”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbZeJ9SgFa
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioM8KZNU4M
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZgkEUUE3e
“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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRszPYBVG9V
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2Ovan9l1y
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3wLr09i4H
At the sunshine apartment:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKk3W0LA8Q
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6Vmw7gG2w
In the bathtub…
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtghsUVuOD1
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIRKo4vtZn
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IjyRE0bkN
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVPKOV6erR
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsidMJlsGlp
Forensic Report Findings:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYp4sf8itg
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGz4lpRE6L
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJvXweGcw3
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYZqZM9kav
That night:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZKJlqr9W5
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWmNersDbi
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTEYhmExvW
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu94rWyxeI9
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4MyFhbAZY
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdR0D9y9Zx
Present Day:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6DnMvISFc
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUbRGShOtD
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AXQQtu1Lu
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1daGUmvyu
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijwxplS7oI
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.”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9GxqMWAAv
“When she left the party, I left too.”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpdgzh1mcL
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lwlI0LN9M
Three angles of police suspicion:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTlwfMvmER
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHp2RznUp8
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUW5krACPej
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5fgpMN7gd
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwIiB1qSkJ
Police questions to her parents:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZGBkW75kC
“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?”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJQLFRMb5c
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGNdGoQ8TP
Tracking the shirt cloth:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d9Lv1qFku
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtLXf41pAM
CCTV Investigation:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B4uMbhtLP
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82u0biTugz
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWLL6MoHNG
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScJ7Y37Hme
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViVUApgcZ3
Two days later:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7s4POtYWQ
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcILIrxvZuj
Lawyer’s Argument:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvrtCARpjJ
“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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cM7PrjJKa
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXhZQQqskP
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaUKCNbEBz
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpYCJqLTNA
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdetePqobDc
Back at home:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBCU624B4i
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnb2umWOBfF
Flashback:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BnhFPK65a
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0hOVPR7cR
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡintlw14acl
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuurYvWa95
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa11hR5jfzq
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w6Ky9RrlL
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEADKX4Thsi
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxPQ6QiGux
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdHXsIgS27
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvglKQvjkag
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhMsbuKY9v
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7iMhKFV8J
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YVyrtBQkS
Two months later:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTScIkoQUaO
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntAdjLmjkl
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyAHU713cp
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUWyMrN0Hw
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDw9mITs3n
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0RSFCk4fd
What was in the video:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnNANnXsll
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EnSzuUnX7
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGCvky0zdl
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARDDuqlsHf
Komal’s confession:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxDBtFxIbK
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPzNIXrAPd
“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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy8XDqODFU
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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooV0BJ9eI3
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP22umjuw7i
Police action:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM6P02WLX8
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gCWXxDkw6
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrjJtM5S84
“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.
15Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrO9ifRVPO
