"We have him."

"On my way..." Replied Pratap speeding the car.

As soon as he reached the police station he saw the suspect who was caught and then at commission Khan who said, "This rascal isn't opening his mouth."

"Sahab!" Came a panting constables cry. "We've....bashed the hell out of him....but...he isn't opening his mouth."

"Where did you find him?" Frowned Pratap glancing at the constable.

"Our men were chasing him ever since he fled the scene..." Replied the constable and saluted and left.

Pratap leaned forward on the commissioners desk and mumbled, "Check his phone records...I'm sure you'll find something there."

"You've also become a criminal huh...." Chuckled the commissioner and ordered for the cyber cell to have his phone checked.

The cyber department immediately forwarded the phone call list to the commissioner who pointed at a recurring number saying, "That seems to be the boss

The cyber department immediately forwarded the phone call list to the commissioner who pointed at a recurring number saying, "That seems to be the boss."

Pratap nodded and looked at one of the constable who tried out the number but immediately said, "It's switched off."

"Trace the location quickly." Ordered the commissioner.

"While tapping Kavish's phone....he gave a set of kill codes." Said Pratap and showed him the paper where he had noted down the codes. "That very evening, someone broke into my house and...tried to kill Anjali."

"The two definitely have a connection and look!" Exclaimed the commissioner pointing at the phone number. "This number on your records matches the number on the suspects call records."

"That means it was definitely Kavish." Mumbled Pratap. "This means....that...our suspect is the perpetrator and his boss is Kavish."

"Yes..." Yawned commissioner Khan pandiculating a little. "The cyber cell is retrieving the calls from the suspects phone."

Looks like I'll have Kavish sooner than I thought, thought Pratap nodding his head.

Just then the cyber department bought in the retrieved phone call audio from the suspects phone. Pratap and the commissioner both sat down and began hearing it carefully.

They looked at each other and smirked.

"Those are the same kill codes." Said Pratap grinning at the commissioner who nodded with a wide grin himself.
"Now the kill codes sent by Kavish match the kill codes on the suspects phone tying the two up and making my illegal evidence legal."

"Umm...yes..." Chuckled the delighted commissioner. "You can tell the court that this evidence was obtained while investigating the frequently attempted number and that's how it led you to Kavish...."

Pratap nodded with a smirk and then said, "Now you can.... investigate more on Kavish's illegal businesses."

"We've already found a lot." Muttered the commissioner. "Illegal factories, child labourers...so many thugs and heaps of illegal funds and money."
