The news flashed across every television channels about the escape of the boy from the police custody.
The pressure from above had led a huge uproar in the whole area with the boy's parents arriving before the media, stating that their boy had been framed.  The whole city was in a state of chaos as Dev was a philanthropist and was quite famous among the masses. His friends had created quite a ruckus at various locations, making the police force use brutal methods of lathi charge. All in all,the whole system had crumbled in a state of confusion with violence spreading all around the corner.

Police Headquarters

"What the hell is happening out on streets? Will anyone please let me know?",asked Rajat,the Inspector General of Bhopal.

All the officers were in a state of confusion about what to speak. They remained silent untill a voice spoke amongst them.

"Sir. May I have the permission to speak",said a voice which commanded authority. All heads were turned towards the voice. It belonged to none other than, Raj,the new assistant superintendent of police.

"Yes. You can speak", Rajat said.

"Sir the matter is all about the unfair abduction of a simple boy named Dev", Raj said with a mischievous grin.

"Who's this  Dev? Tell me Mr Gupta! And why the hell you didn't tell me that it was an unfair case?", Rajat,the DGP was clearly annoyed at Jay Gupta,the Superintendent of Police.

"Sir,I was about to tell you,but the circumstances weren't favourable",Mr Gupta tried to defend himself.

"Absolute Nonsense",said Raj. I have extensively researched about this case. And one thing is quite evident that this boy had gone through a hell lot of police brutality. And if I am right,the third degree torcher",Raj was angry obviously as he was the voice of the commons and this case was clearly the evil one,an unfair use of power by the police department.

The DGP was engrossed in his thoughts and after a while he said,"Mr Raj,if I am not mistaken,you are the presidential award winner for your selfless service and now you'll handle this case",rest all leave the premises except Raj. All the officers left,not before Mr Gupta giving Raj an angry glare and Raj returning the favour with a  wink of his eye.

"What do you think about this case,Raj?", Rajat was clearly worried about the rising violence in the city.

"Sir,Dev was framed by the police and Mr Jadhav,the kingpin businessman of our state. They have done this to gain the land , Dev and his family possessed. But the events took a ugly turn with our corrupt officers brutally beat the poor boy and tried to frame him into wrong case and encounter him",Raj was fuming with anger.

"So much damage had been done that we can't even control it. How can we save ourselves,just tell me?",Rajat was powerless over all this matter.

"Sir,with Dev at large in the forests of Satpura,there is little we can do to search him. Let's see and wait for him to strike,and then we'll decide our strategy",Raj said exhausted.

"Okay Raj. Do as you like,and you have my full support", Rajat said and with a wave of his hand, Raj left him.
