Part three
At Sandhus residence, 7 am.
The disturbed grandpa couldn't finish his breakfast. He wasn't able to sleep full night. He could sense that something was amiss. Is Nehmat alright???
In a few minutes, his instincts turned into horror when he received a phone call from the upset Ekam informing that Nehmat was kidnapped since 11pm the previous night. The time she left for Kapoors.
Apparently, the cab driver lodged a report around 6 am at the police station after regaining consciousness at the roadside. Ekam found out an hour later after reporting for duty. The driver gave the description that fitted Nehmat. The kidnapper's face appearances was sketched and ekam knew the guy .
Ajay Kohli!!
Rupi was shocked to hear the familiar name of his granddaughter 's classmate. He was a nice chap. He used to attend Nehmat,'s birthday parties. She always spoke highly of his kindness to help her with her assignments. Why the hell did he kidnap her??
Even Ekam was puzzled. Ajay had always assisted his ex like a good buddy. What happened suddenly? Infact he didn't complete graduation and vanished from the college six months back
A text came in .
"Aaj raat dinner kare aek sath??"
It was from Harleen, the woman he rescued from goons on new year"s eve . Harleen was fond of him and he tried avoiding her.
He switched off his phone after assuring Rupi that he would rescue Nehmat soonest possible. Ekam traced Ajay's background and found details about his father's properties. He was pretty sure his ex could be hidden there. He won't check in to hotels or motels risking his plan. There was no record of him taking her through a flight anywhere. Not even a train or bus.
He must have driven the stolen cab and definitely he was not far. His father had three properties. A farmhouse in Chandigarh. A bungalow in Pune and a duplex condominium in Delhi.
The farmhouse was the nearest. Without wasting time, the officer took a team of six men and drove to Chandigarh. It was a three hour plus drive. His colleague suggested him to contact the Chandigarh police station for help as they were located nearer to the farmhouse but he refused to get the department 's assistance as he wanted to keep matters low. No one should know about the kidnapping. Advait was running for elections on that day. He will unnecessarily blame Nehmat for anything.
What puzzled the officer was that did the politician know his wife is missing??
Did he take any action???
Why didn't he report her missing??
Was the political career too important for him that he neglected his missing wife?
Four hours later at noon, Chandigarh.
The team sneaked into the large farmhouse and searched thoroughly. Finally, they reached a small storeroom at the basement and found a broken char with bits of ropes everywhere. No one was insight.
The kidnapper and his hostage went missing!
Ekam Randhawa was shocked like hell.
Who took them away???
