The girl said, delightedly, "Look Sneha. A hand. I bet yahan pe pura ek skeleton hoga. Jaise woh murder mysteries main hota hai."
Inspector Jhanvi looked down at the skeleton. It was lying in a fetal position, its left hand in front of its face as if the 2 hands had been on top of each other, begging or in a sleeping position. She bent down and examined the right hand that had been separated from the body. Then she stood up and declared, "Yeh skeleton toh bahut purana lag raha hai. Hamara case nahi hai yeh."
"Ladki hai. 20 se 30 ke beech. Aur haan...yeh 4 mahine pregnant thi. Iske kankaal ke saath ek chota sa kankaal bhi mila hai. Pura nahi tha isli pata hai ke bacha peda nahi huya tha," Dr. Salunkhe replied, sombrely.
Dr. Salunkhe came over and said, "Abhijeet jo kankaal tum log kal raat ko laaye the woh 15 se 20 saal pehle maari thi aur tumhare sample DNA se match karti hai. Aur jo pehla kankaal tum laaye the woh 15 se 20 saal pehle nahi balki pichle 1 se 3 saal main maari hai. Aur usse zeher diya gaya tha. Cyanide ke traces mile hain uske bones main."
What starts as a regular murder case takes a twist when the body found is not who they think it belongs to. What happens next? How does CID solve the murder and what happens when they discover the body is not whose they think it is?
