Atonement – The Third Video Tape

Detective Kabir got another call. This one was from a hospital’s emergency ward. When he reached the hospital, the doctor on call said, “Two brutally beaten up boys were found at the doorstep of the emergency ward. They were dropped here in an Omni van. There were no number plates and no way to identify who dropped them.

We found this pen drive, mobile phones and wallets in their pockets. We called their family using that only. Both of them are stable now and out of danger but none of them have regained consciousness yet. The nearby police station notified you because of a peculiar video on the pen drive. See for yourself.”

An urgent phone call on Kabir’s cell woke him up in the middle of the night. It was from the office.

“What time is it?” he asked.

“It’s 2 AM”, said the person on the other side of the call.

“Why have you disturbed me at this hour?”

“Sir, there has been another death. Similar M.O. The chief has demanded your presence at the crime scene.”

Another killing? This puts my hypothesis all wrong. This clearly means that Nischayy is innocent. Maybe he killed again to throw me off his track. Only the new dead body would shed some light on this. thought Kabir while dressing up.

Atonement – The Reason

The story begins at this page Atonement .

Kabir Singh was promoted to detective due to his excellent capability to think like a criminal. He had a masters degree in Criminal Psychology when he joined the police force.
