Shrey was shocked by her presence at police station. They police locked him in lock up and they were doing some paper works. Through the gap between the door. He saw Pratusha, answering a lady constable. Then Inspector Shaw came in.
"Bring him to my room" said Inspector Shaw. "Do you know her?" he asked Shrey.
"Yes, she was my girl friend." he admitted.
"Do you know why you're here?"
"She filled a complaint against me" Shrey replied.
"She says, you've cheater her and snatched some money from her. Is that true?" inquired the officer.
"NO! NEVER SIR!!! I have my own business, I never borrowed money from her." Shrey tried for an explanation.
"Do you want to know what she have stated in F.I.R?" inspector asked as he took a file from the table. Shrey nodded. "On the date of 18th January 2017, Shrey my ex boy friend borrowed a huge amount of rupees 1.8 Lacks promising to return in 5 months, to start the business. After the span of 8 months, I went to him to get my money back. He said, the business is in loss and will return in few months. He repeated the same excuses, whenever I asked my money back. And I believed him, whatever he said.
One day, he brought a pulser 220 bike. That day I had a fight with him. I asked if your business is in a loss then, how can you buy such an expensive bike. He said, he received the bike as a gift from one of his uncle. On the night of Wednesday, I went after him for my money. That evening, he was drunk. He abused me and slapped me. And warned me, if I dare to ask the my money back, again. Then, he would share my nude photos with his friends.
Next day, my dad went to bank, where he realized his, FD was broken in 2017 and the money were withdrawn by me. I confessed everything to my dad and he said to file a complaint against Shrey." Inspector Shaw looked at his tears flooded eye as he read the statement given by Pratusha.
"It's not true sir. I never…" before completing, Shrey broke out.
"Do you know anyone? From politics?"
"N-No" Shrey replied.
"Hmm, what about your financial conditions?" the Inspector asked again.
"Middle class sir" he replied.
"Look kiddo, I know each and every allegations charged against you is fake. I know, you never borrowed money from them. But believe me, I'm helpless. They have political support and I had to file the case against you." Inspector said and took a pause. Continued again, "If you are willing to settle the things here, I can talk with them" Shrey agreed.
