Over the next few days, Vineet and Abhijeet juggled both the investigation into the murders and their secret mission to uncover dirt on Chitrole. It wasn’t easy—Chitrole had been careful, covering his tracks and ensuring that his influence over the CID was kept under wraps. But every powerful man had secrets, and Vineet was determined to find Chitrole’s.
Late one night, Vineet sat alone in the records room, sifting through files that might link DCP Chitrole to any illegal activity. As he pored over years of documents, he noticed a pattern. A series of high-profile cases involving corrupt politicians and businessmen had mysteriously been closed without resolution. DCP Chitrole’s name appeared in several of these cases, always in the background but never directly involved.
Vineet’s gut told him there was more to this than met the eye. He made a mental note of the cases and began cross-referencing them with recent events. It wasn’t until he stumbled upon a particular file that the pieces started to fall into place.
The file detailed a case from two years ago involving a powerful businessman who had been accused of orchestrating illegal arms deals and bribing officials. The case had been suddenly dropped, and the businessman had walked free. A closer look revealed that one of the key witnesses had been found dead under suspicious circumstances.
Vineet’s heart raced as he realized the connection—this businessman had ties to the victims in the current case. Could it be that the murders were somehow related to the corruption DCP Chitrole had helped cover up?
Just then, the door creaked open, and Abhijeet stepped into the room. Vineet quickly motioned him over, excitement in his voice.
“I think I found something,” Vineet whispered, showing Abhijeet the file. “Look at this— DCP Chitrole was involved in shutting down this case, and now the same people connected to it are ending up dead. It’s not just a series of random murders. It’s a cover-up.”
Abhijeet scanned the file, his face darkening as he realized the implications. “So DCP Chitrole isn’t just manipulating the investigation. He’s involved in whatever this is—maybe even protecting the killer.”
Vineet nodded, adrenaline coursing through him. “This is our leverage. If we can prove DCP Chitrole’s involvement, we can take him down.”
Abhijeet’s jaw tightened. “We need to be careful. If DCP Chitrole gets wind of this, he’ll move quickly to shut us down. We have to gather more evidence before we confront him.”
