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:-
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT71npjV1Cl
Gopi (Gopala Krishna) is a delivery boy. He makes a living by delivering couriers, food, and groceries.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe4u1SmH1r
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtaHz3UwQd
Gopi’s father is no more. His mother supports him financially by working as a tailor at home.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTQbGGde0k
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wlvPfONTp
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).
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA7zqZ5EG7
Seeing that girl, Gopi stopped his bike. The girl asked him for a lift and said she needed to go to Sunshine Apartments.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybQtBSfi21
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0j0drPlne
The street lights had all gone out… the rain was heavy. Gopi started his bike and let the girl sit behind him.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThoe9T7z70
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0ZZKbE8Hk
The next day:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTPaCfN4cW
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFf2iuIbLC0
Throughout the ride, Gopi’s heart grew heavy. He didn’t know what mistake he had made and was anxious.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGBrHouYst
Inside the police station, Gopi couldn’t make sense of what was happening and remained silent.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ277HuecFrX
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?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDImch5DMy
Gopi’s eyes widened. “Sir, which girl?” he asked.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOnKeVeGGs
SI: “The girl you gave a lift last night at 1:00AM? Anita, that was her name?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCQLfRH7dn
“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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hSyYIvla7
SI: “She was found dead in Sunshine Apartments. You were the last person with her at 1:00AM. Tell us the truth, Gopi!”.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko3vNyphcI
Gopi was trembling. The false accusations against him, the things he didn’t know… his mind was in turmoil.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3DqaQO3V3
At the sunshine apartment:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU0mgPnzS7
The police were now at the apartment where Anita had died.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXdIiSG0FE
In the bathtub…
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4APlHowb9
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYeam1gLOY
There were injuries on her wrist as well, making it seem like Anita had attempted suicide. The entire bathroom was covered in blood.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKeTPXMCqt
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB1nV7aBN0
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJxJJXBvkO
Forensic Report Findings:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6RXnch3v7
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaIaSqYxu0
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaMetpv4uc
In the interrogation, dark truths began to come out one by one.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKTuQwxF13
That night:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAG9KrQF2yt
Anita had gone out to meet her fiance, Komal, for a pre-wedding party and bachelor party.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9s3A7cQt5
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWWYoE4VQO
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumRVYZHIrh
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfE6sQSE2c
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO42XfM4kzd
Present Day:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDAmzvEXEY
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSK22GwzJm
In the interrogation room: Komal – Anita’s fiance!
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwJ4eHMJDW
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPT7PJ7WnO
In the next room: Rahul – the ex-boyfriend!
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGe3RU7tHT
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.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z1li4qfqz
“When she left the party, I left too.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszgmIgOxxs
The police were investigating Rahul, Gopi, and Komal over and over again. They suspected all three.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF1YiA3ebH
Three angles of police suspicion:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NZUeYuO1W
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZMGhbYAf6
The police were matching the shirt cloth to these three. They were searching for who matched the evidence.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLClpeiKMY4
Interrogating Anita’s parents:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1HVerh6Z6
The police went deeper, questioning Anita’s parents. But it seemed her family couldn’t help much.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQEvaaJpLB
Police questions to her parents:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWi4BfkfmX
“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?”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oGqooYO0p
Her mother: “Anita was always happy and satisfied. This marriage too was her decision. She never showed any secrets or anger.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCIZfPhlkl
Tracking the shirt cloth:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqJx8vTWyf
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc4LtXJ8w5
CCTV Investigation:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTsym6gAai
Sunshine Apartments… that night, at 1:00AM, the CCTV footage was missing.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGIaUppQWu
Internet failure and the rain had blurred the footage. Even the main road cameras had no record of any cycle or car.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSCnSxmohL
After surveying, the police narrowed down three main points:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0oDoUA0Gw
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48774h0cLm
Two days later:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Loph46WhL
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the police station changed. Gopi’s mother brought a lawyer she knew.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXkSqHoxF9
Lawyer’s Argument:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCwAfUBSyM
“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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKTWC3VJby
Forensic reports show Gopi’s DNA didn’t match. The shirt cloth is from a common brand… so it’s not real evidence.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuneRmsxuBp
“You haven’t even filed an FIR against Gopi. It would be better if you released him, considering the circumstances.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMKydPNYfc
The police released Gopi on strict conditions:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7W0jTUWgn
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvUZGMZVuc
Back at home:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAasIZGeGOR
Gopi sat on his bed, thinking about that night.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam3R5dr7Wp
Flashback:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xo6CPhXGh
That night, it was raining heavily. At that very moment, a girl asked for a lift.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVtQTJiu7v
As soon as Gopi saw her, he felt an unknown joy. That girl was none other than Anita, the girl Gopi had feelings for.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIx21wxQe7u
At Sunshine Apartments, Regularly Gopi delivered a parcel to Anita’s house. Through this, Anita and Gopi developed a good friendship.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmkL5jtW3r
But Anita always saw Gopi only as a friend. Gopi too, knowing his own situation, kept his feelings hidden within himself.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjuHDtps0a
Suddenly, at 1:00 AM, Gopi saw Anita and, since she was someone he knew, he offered to drop her home.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrxneONE2m
Rahul was watching all this from a distance.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ2OzJe39I
Rahul then started following Anita and Gopi, quietly trailing behind them.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIc9hTWmDQ
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0F4zdsHtO
Gopi declined, saying “No,” and left from there.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qvBbmsZqM
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPu0dwRHJ7
Seeing that, Rahul got scared and ran away from there.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlc4psJBrwL
The police couldn’t find any clues behind Anita’s death, and two months passed.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVGAZ0KxM9
Two months later:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnHKQs5ZYk
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX9ihqjNlC
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4rV34SE8C
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwqqiK1CXW
Immediately, Gopi went to the police station and showed the video to the SI (Sub-Inspector).
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhYYUNhT0h
The SI called Komal to come. Seeing the video, Komal became silent. A guilty expression appeared on his face.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGd6sgMgeKY
What was in the video:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMH6RloQzKP
After Gopi dropped Anita off that night, Anita went back to her apartment alone. Her parents had left to their hometown for wedding work.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxz0qvMfcL
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWHcgifCKM
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDs2N6PqWx
Komal’s confession:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdupSInAcxk
After watching the video, Komal revealed the truth:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYHSdsbIjA
“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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkW3NVOCIG
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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMgbnGiU5s
Because of her psychotic love, she killed Anita. I never imagined it would end up like this.”
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEkYO3Nmlx
Police action:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08UWA83FA6
The police went to where Mala was staying, arrested her, and sent her to a mental hospital.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGj5CyOhvA
Gopi standing near Anita’s grave:
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnp6YEHsNh
“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.
24Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkDjdfjz6X
