Part 24
In the hospital,
Abhi rushes towards the reception, there Shipra is there depositing money.
Abhi – “kaki kahan hain?”
Shipra – “ICU mein…fauran ilaaj shuru kar rahe hain”
Abhi – “ruko main deta hoon…”
Shipra – “kya farak pad raha hai abhi…aap jao wahan doctor se Shruti baat kar rahi hain…”
Well there wasn’t much to tell about hospital now…Kaki had just for a heart attack and had to be taken to ICU immediately but ultimately she was fine…
Same evening, in the hospital.
Shruti and her daughter have gone home…as a child shouldn’t be at hospital…Abhi is tensed still…Shipra is now chilled as doctors have said nothing to worry…she gets them both some coffee…
Shipra – “coffee”
Abhi – “thanks”
Shipra – “maine nahi banayi…machine se lekar aayi hoon”
Abhi – “coffee lane ke liye bhi aur…kaki ko yahan lane ke liye.”
Shipra – “toh kya sirf aapka haq hai doosroin ki madad karna…thodi maine bhi kar dee”
Abhi – “par hua kya?”
Shipra – “pata nahi…jab main jog karke wapis aayi…toh Shruti apne kamre mein thi…bahar sab kuch normal tha…aur kaki thodi der mein aayi bas…main newspaper padh rahi thi jab kitchen se aawaz aayi…dekha kaki dard ke mare gir gayi hain…Shruti ko bulaya…bas phir kaki ko yahan le aaye aur aapko phone kar diya.”
Late night,
Abhi decided to stay in the hospital at night while Shipra would go home and rest…so for that Abhi decided to go home and collect a few things and in that time even Shipra was at home…
At home,
Abhi couldn’t find his file that he had brought along which contained papers about the case…he remembered keeping them in the hall when he had come…they were important the thought of loosing them was dreadful…he thought probably Shruti kept them somewhere…so he went into her room to ask her…the door was closed…he knocked and then entered…Shruti was sitting on the bed with something in her hands that Abhi couldn’t see and she looked as though she had been crying…Abhi felt awkward entering and so he left…just a few paces after, he met Shipra who was holding a file and trying to find out what it was…it was the same file Abhi was looking for…and seeing it with Shipra was weird…why would she want to look into the file?
Abhi – “ye file…”
Shipra – “pata nahi yahi table par rakhi thi…main dekh rahi thi ki kya hai…”
Abhi – “office ki hai…main isi ko toh dhoondh raha tha”
Shipra – “mil gayi na…ab jaldi se khana kha lijiye…phir aapko hospital bhi toh jaana hai”
Abhi took the file from Shipra and went with her to the dining table. Shipra went to the kitchen to serve him supper while Abhi saw that everything he needed was put in the bag including the file as it wasn’t safe to leave it at home… and while doing so, he heard a scream from upstairs…it was Shruti…Abhi rushed to help… and he saw that there was a knife covered with blood lying in front of her and an apple was lying on a little distance. Shipra had also come to see the matter….
Shruti said that she put the knife inside the apple and when pulled it out, it was in blood and she got scared… The air got tensed. Abhi wanted to forget all this as soon as he could as now vague thoughts started capturing his mind.
In Pune,
CID had done quite a large amount work for a day. On reaching there, they found that Pune was seriously terrorized. There had been several attacks and small blasts in slums and several were injured. They all set to work immediately. Daya and Freddie went to the slum area. The people were very keen on helping as they knew that Gangu trusted the CID and so they too trusted them. With their help, Daya and Freddie along with a few local cops caught many small merchants and traders who were involved in the blasts or the stealing. They all said that they were given money to transfer either the jewellery or the money from one place to other and all the money was to be given to Birju or the jewellery was sent to them by Birju. On further investigation, they got to know that Birju was Gangu’s cousin brother but the two weren’t on talking terms as Birju had joined hands with the bad and he had sold some property belonging to poor to the rich and since then they were both rivals.
Laxmi, Gangu’s wife told CID all about Birju… she was too in threat and so she was brought to the CID office.
In the interrogation room,
ACP Prithviraj – “Laxmi ek baar phir socho aur batao jo kuch bhi tum Birju ke bare mein bata sakti ho.”
Laxmi – “saab main batayi na aap logoin ko jo bhi main jaanti thi”
ACP – “Laxmi dekho shayad yehi Birju Gangu ke upar humle karwa raha hai, isiliye socho ho sakta hai kuch ho jo tumhe abhi yaad naa aa raha ho”
Laxmi – “saab main Birju ko zyada nahi jaanti…sirf 2 –3 ich baar dekheli hai main usko. Wohh apne baap ke ghar mein rehta hai aur saare galat kaam karta hai par Police saab usse kuch nahi bolti…”
ACP Prithviraj – “aisa kyun?”Laxmi – “saab uske paas bahut paisa hai…sab galat kaam karke kamaila hai wohh…ab jiske paas paisa hoinga, uska toh –“
Both the ACP’s fell silent as they knew this was truth besides being disgusting.
Meanwhile, Freddie and Daya were on Birju’s trail. Freddie had gone to check one part while Daya other… Daya was sure that he had got the correct address. He had a few CID Pune officers with them and together they slowly moved towards Birju’s house. As they came in front of the house, Daya signaled the other men to take positions and himself broke the door. All of them had their guns ready as they entered the house. It was empty. Birju had escaped already… Daya and Freddie checked for anything they could find but nothing much. It was small, untidy house. The cupboards had nothing more than a few clothes.
Daya – “lagta hai bhaag gaya.”
Freddie – “par sir kahan gaya hoga?”
Daya – “pata nahi. Par usse dhoondhna hoga Freddie.”
Daya asks the Pune CID officers to check everything thoroughly in the house and get anything they think as evidence to the bureau. Fredddie and Daya left to report to ACP.
In the Pune office,
ACP – “bahut bada jhol hai Daya…bahut bada.”
ACP Prithviraj – “sir ab kya karein?”
ACP – “maar do sabko.”
Daya – “kya sir?”
ACP – “haan Daya…maar do sabko.”
Daya, Freddie, Vaibhav, Sheetal and ACP Prithviraj, all had disguised themselves and started living in slums. ACP had ordered them to shoot anyone causing any kind of terror. They were there for the whole night.
Things had gone from bad to worse. Daya, Sheetal and ACP Prithviraj were in Gangu’s area to protect the people there along with a 4 – 5 more people while Vaibhav, Freddie and ACP were keeping an eye on Birju’s house. There was no violence that night but late after midnight, a car stopped outside Birju’s flat and two people wearing masks, entered his house. ACP and Freddie entered the house with guns raised while Vaibhav covered for them.
